Change wire destination

Dear,

 

Recently I started using ACADE at my work.

My collegues made electrical drawings in the past.

Now I have to change some of the drawings.

 

Any idea how I can change the destination of a wire.
I would like to have a simple solution, like a buttom "adjust destination".

Looking to "trim wire", "scoot", "strech wire",... I guess this should be possible.

 

I've added printscreens as example to make clear what I mean.

 

Thanks in advance!

OK First of all, the original dwgs need to have been done using some version of Electrical.

 

If so, just trim the wire between the old destination and the component and run a new one from the component to the new destination.

 

If the dwgs have been done with plain ACAD, you have two choices.

 

1. Convert the dwg to an Electrical aware dwg

 

2. Just select the line and grab the end grip to move it. Make any other adjustments as required.

 

Looking at the two pics you attached, they show a dwg that seems to have been done in Electrical, so you can do the top suggestion in about 30 seconds at most.

 

Regards Brad
