Change path width with bindkey

jwpm

Hello,

i want to change the width of a path while creating the path object with a bindkey.

i found a solution doing this job:

hiSetBindKey("Layout" "Alt<Btn4Down>" "hiToggleEnterForm() le0WireForm->wireWidth->value=le0WireForm->wireWidth->value+0.01 hiiToggleEnterForm(le0WireForm) ")

but i'm not happy with this solution because it opens every time the property editor. Do you know a skill function, which sets a property of the object directly when creating/drawing it?

Thank you for your help.

  • Try this method:

    procedure(pathWid(widBool)

    grid = techGetMfgGridResolution(techGetTechFile(geGetEditCellView()))

    wid = obj~>width

    foreach(obj geGetSelSet()

    when(member(obj~>objType '("path" pathSeg")

    if(widBool then

    obj~>width = wid+2*grid

    else   obj~>width = max(2*grid wid-2*grid))

    )

    )

    sorry of there is some syntax error
    just wrote it quick

    another method  you might want to try than stepping by grid is to step by width

    define width (0.010 0.020 0.030 0.040)

    if 0.010 step to 0.020 and 0.020 to 0.030 etc...
