Automating Assembly Drawing

vramanan

Hi I have uploaded a skill script

Which will basically create a detail on Manufacturing/assy_details1 after turning ON silktop/outline/refdes

 (it will calculate the scaling ratio, detail origin, so on and soforth)

The issue is I am able to run the commands one by one but when I execute it, nothing happens

I also included another function to create a allegro SCR file which when I run gives the following error

Command >  replay "foobar.scr"
Script version: 16.01
No element found.
Select elements to copy. Pick two points to define the selection window.
last pick:  -393.70  -285.43
Enter second point
last pick:  10129.92  3316.93
E- *Error* eval: undefined function - _dtl_saveDetail
E- <<< Stack Trace >>>
E- (... in _dtl_main ...)
E-     box = ((-393.7 -285.43) (10129.92 3316.93))
E-     popup = (("Done" "_dtl_doneCallback") ("Cancel" "_dtl_cancelCallback"))
E-     boxId = (dbid:143351352 nil)
E-     objList = (dbid:144299608 dbid:138533440 dbid:138533512 dbid:137628664 dbid:137626936 ... )
E-     tempFileName = "c:/Temp/#Taaaaab07972.tmp"
E-     t_layer = "MANUFACTURING/ASSY_DETAILS2"
E- _dtl_main()
E- No command active
E- Command not found: pop Done

 

Any Help/insight on this will be great

 regards

  •  Get the lastest 16.2 ISR to resolve this problem

  •  Hi I installed the latest ISR but this is were I am stuck

    (defun fGenAssy ()
        sstatus(stacktrace 30)
        sstatus(stacktraceDump t)
    lv.p = axlVisibleGet()
    axlVisibleDesign(nil)
    axlVisibleUpdate(nil)
    axlVisibleLayer("BOARD GEOMETRY/OUTLINE"  t)
    axlVisibleLayer("BOARD GEOMETRY/SILKSCREEN_TOP"  t)
    axlVisibleLayer("PACKAGE GEOMETRY/SILKSCREEN_TOP"  t)
    axlVisibleLayer("REF DES/SILKSCREEN_TOP"  t)
    axlVisibleLayer("PIN/SOLDERMASK_TOP"  t)
    axlVisibleUpdate(nil)

    sprintf(startp "pick %0.4L %0.4L", lv.LowerBrdX-200, lv.LowerBrdY-200)
    sprintf(endpt "pick %0.4L %0.4L", lv.UpperBrdX+200, lv.UpperBrdY+200)
    sprintf(Vscale "FORM mini scale_factor %0.2L", lv.ScaleFac)
    sprintf(detailpt "pick %0.4L %0.4L", lv.LowerAsyX, lv.LowerAsyY)
    axlShell("noappmode")
    axlShell("setwindow pcb")
    axlShell("create detail")
    axlShell("generaledit")
    axlShell("setwindow form.mini; FORM mini subclass ASSY_DETAILS1")
    axlShell(Vscale)
    axlShell("setwindow pcb")


    ;#### Stuck Here

    axlShell(startp)
    axlShell(endpt)
    sprintf(detailpt "pick %0.4L %0.4L", lv.LowerAsyX, lv.LowerAsyY)
    axlShell(detailpt)
    axlShell("prepopup 0 0")
    axlShell("pop Done")
    axlVisibleSet(lv.p)
    )

     The code runs fine if I enter one by one on the skill shell

    But when I run the function, the script gets stuck where I have mentioned ";#### Stuck Here"

    The  axlshell that passes the start point and end point is not working

     I tried different things and still stuck

     I appreciate any help on this regard

  • Have you tried recording a script to make sure you are getting ALL the mouse clicks? For instance I don't see "pop Group" or "pop Complete" within the "create detail" command.

  • Hi Craig

    I tried the following variation, still the same issue it gets stuck at the same location

     

    It won’t go through the pick location

     

    (defun fGenAssy ()

                    sstatus(stacktrace 30)

                    sstatus(stacktraceDump t)

    lv.p = axlVisibleGet()

    axlVisibleDesign(nil)

    axlVisibleUpdate(nil)

    axlVisibleLayer("BOARD GEOMETRY/OUTLINE"  t)

    axlVisibleLayer("BOARD GEOMETRY/SILKSCREEN_TOP"  t)

    axlVisibleLayer("PACKAGE GEOMETRY/SILKSCREEN_TOP"  t)

    axlVisibleLayer("REF DES/SILKSCREEN_TOP"  t)

    axlVisibleLayer("PIN/SOLDERMASK_TOP"  t)

    axlVisibleUpdate(nil)

     

    sprintf(startp "pick %0.4L %0.4L", lv.LowerBrdX-200, lv.LowerBrdY-200)

    sprintf(endpt "pick %0.4L %0.4L", lv.UpperBrdX+200, lv.UpperBrdY+200)

    sprintf(Vscale "FORM mini scale_factor %0.2L", lv.ScaleFac)

    sprintf(detailpt "pick %0.4L %0.4L", lv.LowerAsyX, lv.LowerAsyY)

    axlShell("noappmode")

    axlShell("setwindow pcb")

    axlShell("create detail")

    axlShell("generaledit")

    axlShell("setwindow form.mini; FORM mini subclass ASSY_DETAILS1")

    axlShell(Vscale)

    axlShell("setwindow pcb")

    ;axlShell("prepopup 0 0")

    axlShell("pop Group")

    ;#### GETS Stuck Here asking for location 1 and 2

    axlShell(startp)

    axlShell(endpt)

    ;axlShell("prepopup 0 0")

    axlShell("pop Complete")

     

    sprintf(detailpt "pick %0.4L %0.4L", lv.LowerAsyX, lv.LowerAsyY)

    axlShell(detailpt)

    ;axlShell("prepopup 0 0")

    axlShell("pop Done")

    axlVisibleSet(lv.p)

    )
