sequentially moving components by name in l ist?

autodeskguest

Hi,

 

Is there a way to list multiple components to do an operation on from the

command line...

 

What I'd like to do is type "move R1,R2,R3"

and then be moving r1 with the mouse, then when it's placed automatically

picking up R2, then automatically picking up R3.

 

Instead of having to type:

mov R1  (hand back to mouse and move R1)

mov R2 (back to mouse and move R2)

mov R3  (back to mouse and move R3)

 

Cheers,

 

Alex

    Not to my knowledge...

    mov R2 (back to mouse and move R2)

    mov R3  (back to mouse and move R3)

     

    ...but you don't need to retype the command every time.

     

    I always keep my right hand on the trackball and my left hand at the

    keyboard (though I'm righthanded, I can enter the short part names

    rather quickly with the left).

     

    Then I do it this way:

    mov r1

     

    This is pretty fast and comfortable to me.
