Pin Rotate Tool
Occasionally, the default location of an operator's I/O pin proves to be inconvenient for a desired schema layout. For instance, in the schema shown in Figure 2.1, the output pin of the Analog Constant operator named "TD" is above the operator (rather than to the left of the object---its default location.) In addition, the input pins of the Numeric Display operator that is connected to the Analog Input block were shifted to the right of the object, as opposed to their default left-of-object positions. These changes were made with Design Pad G4's Pin Rotate tool. The tool is so named because it rotates the I/O pin locations from one side of an object to an adjacent side (in the clockwise direction). To change the position of an operator's I/O pin, activate the Pin Rotate tool, position the mouse cursor over the object of interest, and click the left mouse button. Each time you click on the object with this tool, the object's I/O pins will rotate clockwise. All operators can be rotated, but most only support 180 degree rotation. A few operators can have their I/O pins rotated in 90 degree increments.
