In the move command go to the options menu and click off the stretch etch. Then the rat will stay on during movements. Ann Pelcha CID Tektronix Inc.

I do a move => symbol., the rats disappear but after placing part on board the rats will reappear. Just curious if I'm remembering something that never was. I'm using the latest cadence 15.5.
