Hello,
I'm loading gds file and then a def+lef.
After this I would like to rotate/move the def view or any layer in it in order to align it with the gds.
I have tried to use the commands under "edit" but is seems that they are not doing anything.
Did I miss something ?
Thanks
Paul

Up top on the banner is a "move" "button" that does
regular move (click here, click there). There is also (I
have been told) an infix-style move but I don't know how
to find / use that.
I think my "move" bindkey is messed up (duplicate
definition) but might check whether you have a binding
for the move command, that's easier to use.
My preference is an infix bindey 'm' but so far I have not
gotten that set up right.
Thank you dick_freebird. Trying to understand your answer, I finally realized I had just forgot the -e option when launching the tool.
Now everything is working well
"forgot the -e option"
I never knew it existed until now! (I am mostly using klayout as a viewer).
It seems like other programs do something like have
(read-only)
in the GUI window titlebar string, and usually have aFile menu
option foropen as editable
. This would be intuitive and helpful.There is an option in the main File>Setup pile, that says
whether to open for view or edit by default.
