    First of all, since this is a new question you should start a new thread - please read and follow the forum guidelines.

    You might achieve the result that you want using the DRD compactor, but it works after the edit, not during, i.e. you draw/move etc. the shapes and then compact, but there is a user defined spacing that you can apply, which is why I mention it.  You might use a spacing constraint to specify a spacing between two paths (nets), and I think that this would be followed interactively, but you would need to be using VLS-XL or above.

    Hopefully this helps you?

    Regards,

    Lawrence.
