Clear silkscreen from pins in Allegro Package

chads108

 Does anyone have some SKILL code that will clear silkscreen lines back x distance from pins, either as a group or individually?  I want to use this during footprint building.  Currently I have to use delete and cut to remove pieces of lines that run through pads.

    Dave,

    Thanks for the file, When I run the skill it shows the below Error and there is a path with 64bit    text which is not in the actual path of the context file. 

    Command > aline
    radius:11.0
    E- *Error* loadContext: could not open file - "C:/Users/Mypc7894/Desktop/chks/64bit/EDAVE_clearPinSilk.cxt"
    Command >

    Would you please help me to fix this.

    Thanks again,

    Dvk.

    It's a quirk of the 32bit/64bit conflicting requirements that you need to place the cxt file in the 64bit folder.

    Doesn't the autosilk do this in Allegro? At least for the outlines!
