          | Is there a way to calculate the footprint (and especially 3D model) of an axial resistor mounted and bent in a vertical fashion?  I see normal axial resistors in the calculator, and radial dipped resistors but not vertical resistors. I'm hoping I'm just missing it.

          | You must create this part in FP Designer as a round body and remove the courtyard because the one hole with distort the courtyard. 
 The calculation is simple. Place Pin 1 in the center and place Pin 2 2.00 mm away from the component body.
