Is this a patterning tool, for copying a selection of objects relative to the old ones? This site has the guide for autocad: http://www.ncsu.edu/project/graphicscourse/gc/acadtut/acadtut2000/offset1.html http://www.fbe.unsw.edu.au/learning/autocad/ad2/T3/ > > - "extend/trim" mode like 2d CAD packages have > > Could you define these? Trim (I think), allows you to define a cut-line which then trims lines (and other geometry)? at this point. It would allow you to shorten a group of tracks like this: | -------------------------------|-- -------------------------------|---------- -------------------------------|------ <--- Deleted pieces -------------------------------|-- | ^ TRIM LINE I presume extend is similar, but for extending lines? In gschem, I often find myself wishing to extend a group of existing nets, for example. it they line up, I drop in a new net connecting their ends - then rubber-band it to elongate the nets (then deleting my temporary net). _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
