    Hi

    Good post, I think it it important to know that the list of axl functions grow with the quarterly incremental releases for 16.6

    A couple of good hints since the online documentation is NOT updated for the new skill functions, however if you look in  

    C:\Cadence\SPB_16.6\share\pcb\examples\skill\DOC\QIR

    there's a folder NEW and a folder CHANGE that contains descriptions and online documentation for new and changed functions respectively.

    On top of that if you look at the page below theres a section about getting color coding for Skill in Notepad++ - the link contains .txt files with all skill commands but also the general language reference functions.

    https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=da&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=da&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nordcad.dk%2Fdk%2Fteknik__service%2Fe-service%2Fe-service_nr_139.htm&edit-text=&act=url 

    On github theres also a file for UltraEdit - https://github.com/SayCV/SayCV_Cadence_SkillMngt/tree/master/tools - look at Cadence_SKILL.uew (notice that the same site has logomaker, don't download it from there but rely on Dave's posting in this forum instead)

     

    Hope the above information can help others develop skill programs.

    Best regards

    Ole
