Devices and Connectors
Resizing a Device or Connector
Once placed, a device or connector can be resized according to the following rules:
Resizing a device moves the attached connectors with the side of the device they are attached to.
An attached connector's attached side is not movable.
Changing the height of an inline connector resizes both the plug and the jack; their widths are independent, but their heights are dependent. The middle of the inline connector is movable vertically and moving it will resize both the plug and the jack.
Changing the size of an object moves pins on that object along with the side being moved. Pins on a corner are left in position, and are considered pins on the side not being moved.
Pins are not added or removed when a device is resized.
Changing the size of an object cannot orphan any pins. If a pin is on a corner of an object, it cannot be resized smaller on the two dimensions for that corner, even if there is space to do so.
The behavior of corner pins depends on the pin list; a pin list rotated 90 degrees will behave as if the sides are the top and bottom. A corner pin thusly moves up and down, instead of left and right.
