The !mo Command: Move Objects

Syntax: !mo x [y [layer_name]]
The !mo command will move selected objects to a new location offset by x, y (in microns) from the original object. If not given, y is zero.

The third argument, if given, will allow a layer change during the move. It should be the name of a layer that is not the current layer. If in layer-specific mode, objects being moved that are on the current layer will be moved to layer_name. If not in layer-specific mode, all objects moved will be changed to layer_name. Subcells are moved without regard to layer_name.

There is a companion !co (copy) command.
