When routing a design more often than not I change the grid when routing.
I created a hotkey to do this and indeed the grid does change but when the hotkey executes I loose the cline segment I had picked.
here is the macro
funckey 1 "define grid;etchedit;setwindow form.grid;FORM grid non_etch non_etch_x_grids 100;FORM grid non_etch non_etch_y_grids 100;FORM grid all_etch all_etch_x_grids 100;FORM grid all_etch all_etch_y_grids 100;FORM grid done"
If I am routing in a trace I can go up to the tool bar and change the grid spacing for all the etch and click ok in that dialog. The grid spacing changes and I dont loose my picked trace so I can keep on routing with the new grid settings.
Does anyone know how to create a macro to do this. It would be a time saver...I just want to be able to change the grid in an easy way while routing at the same time ... lol :) without having to select a menu to do it.
Thanks Scott.
