Executing/Loading SKILL scripts after PCB editor has come up

ddbarge

I have written some SKILL scripts and added their entries in allegro.ilinit. These scripts run fine when PCB Editor is coming up.

But now I have an requirement that I want to run some SKILL scripts after the PCB Editor has come up. These scripts manipulate the .BRD files automatically without any user intervention. Also since these scripts use axlXXXX functions I cannot add these scripts in allegro.ilinit

Can anyone provide help on

1) Is there a way to execute/load SKILL scripts after the PCB editor has come up (I know we can do it by typing [skill load "<filename>" ]

    But it needs the user to type this in the PCB command interpreter. But I need automated way of calling my scripts

    You might want to take a look at the axlTriggerSet function.
