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.

    That's the point, it moves the cursor by the fixed amount stored in legRpDelta - for example, you start the stretch command, and depending on how 'infix' is set you may need to select the edge of the shape to be stretched, then you use the keypad keys to move the cursor by the specific amount in the direction you want. I think that's what you were asking for...
