Color selection dialog using SKILL

Runner
Runner over 15 years ago

I want to create a color selection list on the form using SKILL. Something similar to a color selection dialog in wire properties or probe layer selection (direct probe layer selection dialog would be even more preferable if I could place it on the form, because I am going to use selected color to highlight instances in schematic).

example of color selection dialog

Could you give me example or point to a solution/documentation where it's described?

Thank you in advance.

    You just need to use the SKILL function hiCreateLayerCyclicField() in your form creation code. If you want more than one of the fields in a form, you'll need to give the fieldName argument, because without this there's a default field name that is used.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
