Grouping instances in layout

Senan

Hello,

I have a basic issue, in the layout design I need to creat a group of some implemented devices, example I want to make the differential pair matched transistors as a one group after I have layouted them, so I can move them safely as a one device.

I have tried to use Edit > group, I got three points pointers then I make square over the devices but nothing is grouped.

Thank you for your help

Regards

    That's only for when you want to add to an existing group. Instead select the objects you want and do Create->Group, or if nothing is selected you can do Create->Group, select the objects (as prompted) and then either Apply the popup form or hit Enter.
