Extract UI information in SKILL program

Yann00
Yann00 over 12 years ago
Hi all,


Well i am in allegro PCB Design,
I go tools/reports/New then i save Board_ACCURACY, Board_extents, Board_units,
etc... and i put that on text file.

I know how to do that with the user interface, but I need to translate that in
SKILL program in order to automate this informations record.

Could anybody help me?

Best regards,

Yann

    Hi

    From within skill you can use axlExtractToFile to extract data.

    It takes an "extract command file" as input - so you take whatever is in your command file and write that to a file inside skill and then run axlExtractToFile.

    That works really nicely.

    See attached file and remove 3 .txt command files and change the last one to suit your needs.

     

    Best regards
