Require skill script/function for silk screen coordiantes

KetCadence

 Hello,

 

I am trying to find skill function or develop a skill script that would provide me co-ordinates

of silk screen of a component. I was not able to find such function.

Could anyone please help me with this?

 

Thanks.

    Hello,

    Dave, Thanks for your reply.

    Your method worked for getting the silkscreen coordinates for components.

     

    Now, I was trying to get coordinates for "BOARD GEOMETRY/SILKSCREEN_TOP".

    I tried using "axlLayerGet(layerName)" and it gave me param dbid of layer.

    However, I was not able to extract any co-ordinate or shape related properties from it.

     

    I also tried, getting shapes on "BOARD GEOMETRY/SILKSCREEN_TOP" layer

    using:

    shapeList = axlDBGetShapes("PACKAGE GEOMETRY/SILKSCREEN_TOP");

    It is returning  null list.

     

    Does anybody have worked on this previously and have any idea how to get this information?

     

    Thanks.
