Rotation in positions.csv file? about jlc-plugin-for-kicad HOT 4 CLOSED

Well, the issue is that the footprints JLC uses are not guaranteed to be oriented in the same manner your footprint is oriented.
There is not a way that I know of the to match the rotations (unfortunately).
BTW, a good place for this question would be in the discussions tab.

I use this script to rotate kicad models. It's not perfect and sometimes I need to do minor manual fixes but it work well with JLCPCB. Each invocation rotates by 90deg so I run it 1, 2, or 3 times as needed. Sometimes I also need to move the footprint by x/y using the move-exact command in Kicad. My practice is to rotate/offset my footprint such that the land perfectly when I upload to JLCPCB. Very useful for open source projects when other people order independently for themselves.

This could be an extra footprint property. E..g. JLCPBP_FIX =" 270/+0.1/-0.32", for rotating by 270deg and offsetting by 0.1, -0.32mm. Just an idea.

Sounds good
