Move instance in Schematic Editor L

BaaB

I know this question looks silly and odd but I just wonder if anyone has a better way to do this.

I want to move the voltage source to the center to make it looks nice but the result is not as expected.

I am using Virtuoso version 6.16-64b and Schematic Editor L.

Thank you.

    Two options:

    1. Move the gnd symbol down a bit (stretch it) so that you end up with a solder blob at the T junction. Then the stretch of the voltage source won't do this.
    2. Hit the F4 key to toggle partial selection, and then do an area select of the voltage source you want to move (including the pins). This will select the instance plus the wire ends attached to it. Now if you do a stretch, it doesn't need to re-route the wiring because they remain attached.

    This is one of those cases where figuring out the user's intent is quite hard...

    Regards,

    Andrew.
