wait the design is loaded to run a SKILL routine

Hello all.

 I need a routine to be run at the loading of the design. But actually, the skill is loaded before open the design. Then I succeeded to launch a routine, but this one does not use the design, it just loads a form.

If I run this new routine that checks a property definition and redefines it if it is wrong, I got an Allegro crash!

 How to make that this new routine starts only once the design is open (and then axlCurrentDesign is different than "").

 Thanks in advance.

     see the example code in <cdsroot>share/pcb/examples/skill/trigger/trigger.il

    without seeing  your code I can only guess your problem is that your redoDesc function does not take an argument  but the openTrigger callback function requires an argument so I would change your function def to

         procedure( redoDes(t_open)
