Movement along y-axis of text on any symbol is reversed in eeschema

[Paul Hansel]

Moving any symbol causes its text to move in the opposite direction with respect to the y-axis in eeschema.

This occurs when copying or moving symbols with Ctrl-C, C, block select, and Tab or G, but not when moving single items with M.

Please write the bug description in the bug description and not only in the title.

Ha, that's kind of groovy. Sometimes the text springs back to where its supposed to be, but sometimes it stays where its wandered off too (e.g. if group select, Cmd-C and Cmd-V).

Yeah, I actually knew about this before I checked it in, but it just looked too cool. Try dragging a whole bunch of stuff in a big schematic...

Anyway, I will look at fixing it. ;)

(I lowered the priority as it does actually move everything correctly; it just the display while moving that wonky.)

I confirm that fix works
