finding vias

ahmetozsoy

Hi all,

Is there  a skill program that shows all the vias and via positions? This is because if I want to change a specific via type to another via type I could not manage to find where the via is. This is useful when you use some blind vias and convert them to thru-hole type vias to decrement the cost. In allegro editor reports the tool has the capability to say that there are for ex. 35 items used  for   via_thr_02_30x30 ( name of the via) but could not say its position.

Thank you.

  • Here's some code that will find all the padstacks of type "name" and log there location in padstack.log. When you view the log file just click the xy coord and Allegro/APD will zoom center to those coord. 

    defun(CAL_findPadstack (name)
      let((port userData vias (inc 0))
        port = axlDMOpenFile("ALLEGRO_LOG" "padstack" "w")
        axlLogHeader(port name)
        userData = axlUIGetUserData()
        putprop(userData axlVisibleGet() 'visibility)
        putprop(userData axlGetFindFilter(nil) 'FFEnabled)
        putprop(userData axlGetFindFilter(t) 'FFOnButtons)
        axlVisibleDesign(nil)
        axlVisibleLayer("VIA CLASS" t)
        axlClearSelSet()
        axlSetFindFilter(?enabled 'vias ?onButtons 'vias)
        axlAddSelectAll()
        vias = axlGetSelSet()
        ;axlMsgPut("Vias %L" length(vias))
        foreach(via vias
          when(via->name == name
            inc++
            fprintf(port "Net %L @ %L\n" via->net->name via->xy)
          )
        )
        axlMsgPut("Name %L %L" name inc)
        axlVisibleSet(userData->visibility)
        axlSetFindFilter(?enabled userData->FFEnabled,
          ?onButtons userData->FFOnButtons)
        axlCloseFindFilter()
        remprop(userData 'visibility)
        remprop(userData 'FFEnabled)
        remprop(userData 'FFOnButtons)
        axlClearSelSet()
        drain(port)
        close(port)
    ))
