Summary
This command is used to offset the current selection of objects by a precise amount in X and/or Y directions.
Access
This command can be accessed from the PCB Editor and the PCB Library Editor, by:
- Locating and using the Move Selection by X, Y command (
) on the Active Bar.
Click and hold on the active button to access a menu of all associated commands for that grouping. If the command has been recently used from the Active Bar, it will become the active/visible button. When other commands are available it is indicated by a triangle at the bottom-right corner of the button.
Use
First ensure that the objects to be moved using this feature are selected in the design workspace.
After launching the command, the Get X/Y Offsets dialog will open. Use this dialog to specify delta X and/or delta Y increment values by which to move the selection. After clicking OK, the selection will be moved accordingly.
Tips
- If an object is locked and you try to move it, you will be prompted with a confirmation dialog alerting you to this and asking if you want to continue.
