How to Retrieve the value of dX and dY in the current window

ClintMeyer

I would like to create a script that will automatically move whatever I have selected in a layout window by the same amount as the last move.  The last move/copy/stretch relative distance is displayed in the layout window as dX and dY (standing for delta X and delta Y i presume).  Is there a skill function that returns that value?  I looked under the hiGetCurrentWindow() and it was not there.

 Thanks for any help
