3.4.1. Package position changing

 

The package position can be altered by applying the three following methods

 

(1)    Select a package with a mouse and change its position by the drag and drop function.

 

(2)    Select a package and change its position by using the arrow keys on the keyboard.

 

(3)    Input the X and Y values on the grid window directly.

 

If interference between workpieces occurs while changing their positions, the objects that are interfering with each other will be displayed in red as shown in (Figure 3.8).
