when I try to shift a 45° trace segment, the adjacent horizontal and vertical segments also move.

What I would like to do is to parallel shift the 45° segment and the two adjacent connected traces (one horizontal and one vertical) stay fixed in direction and only stretch or shrink to stay connected. I can’t find how to do it.

Is there a way to do this in LibrePCB?

Hi,

Yeah this is currently not possible yet, I’m sorry. We will implement that in a future release. For now, you need to move both vertices manually.
