skill to repeat command in Layout L??

SteveRFIC

Hi,

I wonder if there is a way to use skill or bindkeys to combine a few commands in layout.

For instance, I select an instance, I clikc "c" to copy, then I press "F3" to get the copy window, and then I give a delta value and then hit "Apply" with left mouse button. Then I finished the delta copy. If I want to do the same thing again, then I have to repeat, c, F3, click, c, F3, click.

When I check CIW, what appears is the following three commands:

leHiCopy()
hiToggleEnterForm()
_leApplyCopy(hiGetCurrentWindow())

I tried to put these three commands in a bindkey, but it does not work. I only get the copy command and I still have to press F3. Is there a way to combine these there things? to define a function that does the three things so that I can do this with one button?

Thanks!

  • Thank you Derek!

    To summarize:

    method 2 works well, but I still need to select the object and click apply every time.

    method 3 is exactly what I am asking for and it works perfectly. this is great.

    method 4 is a good approach too, as well as the step function in delta copy
