How to check the mistaken Reference Text location

archive
archive over 19 years ago

How to check the mistaken Reference Text location during arranging the silkscreen?
For example, the component R1 is close to R2, but the Text: R1 and Text: R2 have been exchanged their location. But Allegro can't check them out.
How deal with this situation by SKILL or other solution?

    Just a comment. I did a quick check and this skill routine launches and appears to work in version 16.0
    I didn't do any extensive testing but didn't encounter any run errors.

    E- *Error* axlGRPDrwInit: argument #1 should be any user-defined (other) type (type template = "otg") - nil
     

    I had the same error message and  had the "." in the formpath.

    What I found is that adding a ./ to line 129 fixed the problem.

    Changed: formFile = "ASU_temp.form"

    To: formFile = "./ASU_temp.form"

    Works now...

    Maybe the . in the formpath should be ./  ?

     Hi Dave,

     the file is not downloadable any more.

    I use 15.7 and i think this file should be usefull for me.

    I have found a 2005 version on sourcelink. Can you repost or send this new version?

     

    Thank's,
