skill for move and stretch object

imaneet

hello,


can anyone help me with a skill doing move or stretch in a specific spacing for objects (path, rectangle, polygon, pins, etc)? similar to the gui stretch/move by delta input.

i would like it to have a bindkey using arrow keys, if i hit left (right, up, down) it will move/stretch the object (any shape) by 1um (or any value). using the gui takes longer, the bindkey will be faster if someone can help.

thanks in advance.

  • Hi,

    I think that the functionality you want is already built-in.  Take a look at the default layout bindkey file:

    `cds_root virtuoso`/tools/dfII/samples/local/leBindKeys.il

    Look for any entry that contains "legRpDelta".  You would start the move or stretch command and then use the keypad keys to move the cursor by the specified amount in the desired direction. If you have infix turned on (CIW Options -> User Preferences) then the first point is where the mouse is when you start the command.

    Hopefully this is what you are looking for.

    Regards,

    Lawrence.
