repeat copy in IC51

zhisong

Greeting, everyone.

In IC5.1 if I want to copy shape to multi, I have to count the repeat number to specify row/column. It's boring.

I want to copy shape to one, and then press a bindkey(such as "dot"), which can repeat the copy action.

Do you think SKILL can realize it?

  when(hiGetCurrentCmd(wid)

     ... ...

the copy source, I can use geGetSelSet() to collect.

But I wonder, how I can get the target position, I have less experience to control mouse in SKILL.

Please show me some comment, Thanks

    Hi Quek,

     Yes, this code can work well if I give it the xDist and yDist.

    But it's also difficult for me to catch xDist/yDist from the first Copy.

    I have tried to use leGetRefPoint(), but it's real time, after the new shapes generated, refPoint become the new value.

    Do you have idea to catch the offset from first copy?

    Thanks
