Abstract

Computer-implemented design tool functions are described herein for automatically performing edits across different portions of one or more design layouts. According to an example, a method includes causing a display device to display a design interface used to edit a design layout, which includes at least a first frame and a second frame. The method includes receiving first input to initiate a multi-edit mode in the design interface and receiving second input to perform a first operation to edit a first node in the first frame. The method further includes identifying, based at least in part on the second input, a second node in the second frame and corresponding to the first node in the first frame. In this example, the method includes performing, based at least in part on the second input, the first operation to edit the first node in the first frame and a second operation to edit the second node in the second frame.
