In the course of this example we will:

•Activate a gate

•Move a gate

 

We will continue using the same layout as we were using above.

 

1.Click anywhere inside the "Whole-Cells" gate. This will activate the gate. You know the gate is activated when there are resizing handles (red squares) on the corners (Figure T4.17).

                           Create the rectangular gate on this plot.       Create the rectangular gate on this plot

                                                          Before                                                    After

                                                                   Figure T4.17 Gate activation by clicking on it

 

2.Press and hold down the left mouse button anywhere inside the gate.

3.Move the mouse while holding down the mouse button. An outline of the gate will move as you move the mouse.

4.Release the mouse button when the gate is in the new, desired position.

 

Note: You can press Esc on the keyboard while moving a gate (Steps 1-3) to cancel the action.

 

The next topic is resizing a gate.
