How to add a new textblock through SKILL?

chvishu

Hi,

I am trying to see if a textblock exists, else trying to add a new one with the new parameters.

I am able to access the existing text blocks through the axlGetParam("paramTextBlock:<textBlockNumber>") command. But, I am unable to figure out how to add a new textblock.

I recorded the actions to create a textblock to a .scr script and got the following. How can I achieve the same functionality through SKILL.

setwindow pcb
trapsize 1
generaledit
prmed
setwindow form.prmedit
FORM prmedit text_setup_button
setwindow form.textblock
FORM textblock add
FORM textblock done
setwindow form.prmedit
FORM prmedit apply
FORM prmedit done
setwindow pcb
generaledit
