Extend Rigid-Flex

Is there any easy way to extend the flexes in a rigid-flex board without rerouting the board and remake the outlines?

I know You can make groups of components/routing and move relative to current position, but how to cope with board outline, keepouts and others?

I´m using Allegro PCB Designer version 17.2

Invoke the Shape Edit Mode (Setup - Application Modes - Shape Edit) then look at the Options pane. You can set the Segment Click commands to slide and then slide the outline to where you want. There are also add notch options. If you want to edit a flexi zone, make sure you enable "zone editing". There's a video showing all the shape modes here www.youtube.com/watch
