Move/Place Component to Absolute Location

leto
leto over 4 years ago

Hello All,

I could use axlTransformObject to move a component to a location.

However this function moves by a delta from current position.

May I know if there is a function that moves to a give absolute coordinate?

Thanks All

    I'm not aware of any function to move it to an absolute location, you can try deleting it & then use axlDBCreateSymbol()
