Can the name of the custom component please be moved to unused screen area so we can see the labels (see first image ). I know this is in ultrawide but I think 16:9 would also have the same problem.

also can custom components (image 3) be auto cropped to be like the RAM (image 2), this would also be useful as it would allow bigger font for inputs/output pins, its very hard to read small labels (its even harder to read with a QD-OLED monitor as the pixel layout is already not good for displaying text). Thank you 🙂

not sure I like the cropping idea as it would somewhat restrict you from putting pins on/near the bottom of larger components (at least if you cared about seeing their labels)

but any other ideas to make it more readable / give it space are definitely an

hmm, if you have pins at the bottom&top then it wouldn't crop it I guess, but if you have pins only on the bottom then it could crop-off the top.

it'd presumably be possible to detect the pin locations and position the component appropriately for those; that way, if you have a component with pins around all edges, you get the current behaviour, but if you make a component shaped like RAM with pins only near the top, you'd get the RAM-like behaviour where it zooms in on the relevant section
