create symbol with skill

I have a text file with coordinates for a number of shape symbols that I need to create. My problem is how I inside skill can create a new .dra file and then draw the shape and save the .dra/ssm file.

I've look at numerous axl functions without getting something to work - does anyone have an idea?

I could probably create scripts to generate new shape symbols and save them using scripts, but I would rather avoid using scripts.

Best regards

Hi Ole,
Have you tried "axlDBCreateSymDefSkeleton"? I've use this to create new symbols in a design.
