Hi Guys

I am stuck on a issue and I don't know if it is possible to do

I am trying to run some allegro commands like

"setwindow pcb" or FORM mini subclass AUTOSILK_TOP or pick 9740.755 11678.853

inside the skill shell

The intention is to pass the x,y on to the pick command

so here is what I want to achieve

POintx = 111

Pointy = 111

now I want to run/invoke pick PointX Pointy from inside the shell

How do I do that?

any help is greatly appreciated

regards Venkata

     Hi Ole

    Thanks for pointing out the thread, I did go over it, but I still have trouble

     Can you give me an example for the following scenario?

     I want to run the following allegro command

    setwindow pcb

     I tried the following

    axlRunBatchDBProgram("test" "setwindow pcb")

    but it didn't work

     

    regards
