Abstract

Disclosed is an approach for implementing placement for an electronic design, where when a dragged object is moved into a desired area, existing objects in that location are automatically moved as necessary in correspondence to the movement of the dragged object. Existing objects are only moved if they are causing a spacing violation or overlap with the dragged object being moved, either directly or indirectly.
