Re: Creating a board for my electronics
Are you talking about CAD/CADD layouts? What software are you using?

You should be able to take the edge-to-edge of one of the flat sides, make objects parallel, space at a set distance, etc. You can also use the center points (sometimes you need to enable the software to show center points) of round objects and use them to line up from the edges of your board.

Have you tried looking at "[CADD software name here] dimensioning and layout" or a similar query on YouTube?
