Clear silkscreen from pins in Allegro Package

 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.

    Sorry for the delay. The problem was caused by a bug in a Skill command (now reported)4520.EDAVE_clearPinSilk.zip

    This can be done automatically in Allegro using the 'Silkscreen' option in manufacturing: Cadence PCB Interactive Automatic Silkscreen - YouTube
    Not sure if it was there in the older versions, but definitely there in 17.2
