so im playing around with the sparkfun library for the buttonpads, and the pads don't seem to be on any sensible grid pattern ... making proper routing seem impossible. even from pad to pad it seems to be a very fine almost prime number lol.
my best guess is that the board is metric, and the button pads are some arbitrary distance away from each other.
am i just an idiot or is this part bonkers?
which brings me to my next question, what is 'standard' grid spacing for parts, through-hole and smd. i've been keeping with 50/25mil in eagle as my gridsize ... what is generally used?
as an unrelated note is there a way to recalibrate the grid in eagle with a selected point?
