How can I use the skill code to save flash symbol or shape symbol?

axlSaveDesign

thanks for your apply, and this function is essentially the Allegro "save" command.

What i meant is that there is a skill program (run in design) can   create shape symbols and flash symbols ,but I can only use them  in current design .

More ,What I  wanted is  that how to save flash symbols and shape symbols to disk.

This is relatively difficult to achieve. The best way is to create and run a script using Skill and run a separate session of allegro with the script file.

Here's a function example that might help you:

defun( AFn_createThermalFlash (name); eg. name = "th395od345id55g45"
let((data, cwd, templateFile, fsm, p, scriptFileName, cmd)
name = lowerCase(name)
data = parseString(name, "th od id g")
when(length(data) == 4
data = mapcar('readstring data)
cwd = getWorkingDir()
templateFile = "[pathToTemplates]/blank_thermal_flash.dra"
if(isFile(templateFile) then
p = axlDMOpenFile("ALLEGRO_SCRIPT", "flash", "w")
if(p then
sprintf(fsm "%s/%s.fsm", cwd, name)
when(isFile(fsm), axlOSFileMove(fsm, strcat(fsm, ".old")))
scriptFileName = get_filename(p)
fprintf(p, "setwindow pcb\n")
fprintf(p, "generaledit\n")
fprintf(p, "prmed\n")
fprintf(p, "setwindow form.prmedit\n")
fprintf(p, "FORM prmedit type Flash\n")
fprintf(p, "FORM prmedit apply\n")
fprintf(p, "FORM prmedit done\n")
fprintf(p, "setwindow pcb\n")
fprintf(p, "generaledit\n")
fprintf(p, "add flash\n")
fprintf(p, "setwindow form.thermflash\n")
fprintf(p, "FORM thermflash indiam %2.3f\n", cadr(data) / 100.0)
fprintf(p, "FORM thermflash outdia %2.3f\n", car(data) / 100.0)
fprintf(p, "FORM thermflash spkwdth %2.3f\n", caddr(data) / 100.0)
fprintf(p, "FORM thermflash spknum 4\n")
fprintf(p, "FORM thermflash spkangl %d\n", cadddr(data))
fprintf(p, "FORM thermflash done\n")
fprintf(p, "setwindow pcb\n")
fprintf(p, "save_as \"%s\\%s.dra\"\n", cwd, name)
fprintf(p, "create symbol\n")
fprintf(p, "fillin \"%s\\%s.fsm\"\n", cwd, name)
fprintf(p, "exit\n")
fprintf(p, "fillin no\n")
drain(p)
axlDMClose(p)
sprintf(cmd, "allegro -s flash.scr -p %s %s", cwd, templateFile)
shell(cmd)
deleteFile(scriptFileName)
axlUIConfirm(lsprintf("Local flash symbol created: %s", fsm))
else
axlUIConfirm("Error: Could not create flash script file", 'error)
)
else
axlUIConfirm(lsprintf("Error: Could not create flash template: %s", templateFile), 'error)
)
)
))

thanks a lot 

I'll try
