since all of the title images still had 8.2, and the title text still said 7.3 or 7.4, having not been updated for a long time.

<H3>Summary:</H3>
|
|
<BLOCKQUOTE>
|
|
The <B>move</B> command erases the current selection from
|
|
its current position and moves it according to the command
|
|
arguments.
|
|
Without arguments, the lower-left hand corner of the
|
|
selection is moved to the current cursor position (the X11
|
|
cursor, not the <B>magic</B> "cursor box"). With arguments
|
|
<I>direction</I> and <I>distance</I>, the selection is moved
|
|
relative to the original in the indicated direction by the
|
|
indicated amount. The default distance is 1 unit (usually
|
|
lambda; see <A HREF=distance.html><I>distance</I></A> for
|
|
further explication).<P>
|
|
|
|
The option <B>origin</B> does not require a selection. It will
|
|
relocate the entire design such that the origin (coordianate 0, 0)
|
|
is at the position indicated by <I>option</I>. Note that this is
|
|
more efficient than unexpanding the contents of the top-level cell,
|
|
selecting everything, and moving the selection. For very large
|
|
layouts, repositioning the origin of a cell can be prohibitive
|
|
(may overrun available memory), and "<B>move origin</B>" is always
|
|
preferred.
