I just started using KiCad. But there is one annoying feature.
After i connect wires to components, if I rotate or move the
components, wires break away from them. That really annoying.
Is it so or am I doing it > the wrong way?
You probably move the components using the Move (M key) command.
KiCad has two ways to move components. First you already know; you are pressing M and the component will move without their connections. The second one is the Drag (G key) command. If you press G and starting to move the componnent, the corresponding tracks will stay connected and their last segments will be moved too. During draging you may also use the Rotate command (R key) and tracks still be connected.
If you only need to rotate the component with keeping tracks just press G and without moving the cursor press R as many times as you need.
