Hi Tim,

In a drawing that I have, I suddenly need do expand the size of  a box
to fit some text. Expanding the box is easy with the edit function,
but all the rest of the drawing has to be moved and extended. One idea
that came to my mind was that if I could draw a vertical cut-line and
give a command like: "all elements to the right of this line move 10
units to the right, all elements on the left of this line move 10
units to the left and all lines crossing the cut-line are extended."

Of course, then the thought came to my mind: "What if I only want to
extend a part of a design", say, I need to add another input pin on a
block, but there is simply no more space for another pin, and the
signal routing is dense both on top and bottom of the block. That's
probably a stretch function where a part of the module block is
selected and all the routing below and then this is moved while
maintaining connections.

Do you understand my idea? Is something like this already implemented
without me knowing about it?

Kind regards,
