skill program to create shape symbol

Ejlersen
Ejlersen over 15 years ago

Hi

Attached, find a small utility to help creating rectangular shapes with rounded corners for shape symbols to be used inside a pad

Usage: File, New, Shape symbol

Run the program "ns_spad"

Add width(x), height(y) and a radius in the dialog shown

Hit run to create the shape.

Have fun :-)

Ole

    hi,Ejlersen,

    the ns_spad skill is useful,but can  it add to the menu by modify the allegro.men?

    when open the .brd file,it display in the pull-down menu  which i added,but it disable because "program only runs on shape symbols",

    but when i make a new  shape symbol file, the menu that  i added  disappear. i shoud imput "ns_spad" in command line.

      Is there a way to add the skill to the menu?

    sorry for my poor English.

    Thanks!
