Need a skill code to report text block settings from pcb editor.

It's difficult to understand what you are asking.

Does this help:

foreach(def, axlDBGetDesign() ->symdefs
  p = axlDMOpenFile("MISC", strcat(def ->name, ".txtBlkRpt"), "w")
  fprintf(p, "%s", buildString(unique(setof(obj, def ->children, obj ->objType == "text") ~>textBlock)))
  axlDMClose(p)
)

Hi Dave,

Thanks for your reply. I am new to skill code, I tried to code extract text block report from the footprint(xxx(fpname)_xxxx(timestamp).txt. Here I want output file should be in the name of footprint name and timestamp. and I don't have an idea to include time and footprint name into an output report file. here the code i composed. please help me to achieve desired code. 

axlCmdRegister("textblkcheck" 'TextBlockcheck)
defun( TextBlockcheck ()
p = axlDMOpenLog("textblkcheck_Report")
fprintf(p, "textblkcheck_Report\n\n", nil)
;-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
fprintf(p,"TextBlock:\n\n", nil )
q=axlGetParam("paramTextBlock:1")
txtBlk_name = q->Name ; get the name field
txtBlk_photo = q->PhotoWidth ; get the photoWidth field
txtBlk_height = q->Height ; get the height filed
txtBlk_width = q->Width ; get the width filed
txtBlk_linespace = q->LineSpace ; get the lineSpace filed
txtBlk_charSpace = q->CharSpace ; get the charSpace filed
fprintf(p, "name:%L TxtBlk_Photo:%L txtBlk_height:%L txtBlk_width:%L txtBlk_linespace:%L txtBlk_charSpace:%L", txtBlk_name, txtBlk_photo, txtBlk_height, txtBlk_width, txtBlk_linespace, txtBlk_charSpace)

axlDMClose(p)
axlUIViewFileCreate("textblkcheck_Report.log" sprintf(nil, "REPORT", nil), nil)
axlVisibleDesign(t)
axlMsgPut("Checking completed.See report.")
); end defun

Type the whole command

axlGetParam("paramTextBlock:1") ->??

Skill > axlGetParam("paramTextBlock:1") ->??
(objType "paramTextBlock" width 0.4064 photoWidth
0.0254 name "1" lineSpace 0.7874
height 0.635 charSpace 0.1524

So if you copied my code correctly it should work

defun( TextBlockcheck ()
p = axlDMOpenLog(lsprintf("%s_textblkcheck_Report", axlCurrentDesign()))
fileName = get_filename(p)
fprintf(p, "textblkcheck_Report\n\n")
;-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
fprintf(p,"TextBlock:\n\n")
q=axlGetParam("paramTextBlock:1")
txtBlk_name = q->name ; get the name field *** Case sensitive ***
txtBlk_photo = q->photoWidth ; get the photoWidth field
txtBlk_height = q->height ; get the height filed
txtBlk_width = q->width ; get the width filed
txtBlk_linespace = q->lineSpace ; get the lineSpace filed
txtBlk_charSpace = q->charSpace ; get the charSpace filed
fprintf(p, "name:%L TxtBlk_Photo:%L txtBlk_height:%L txtBlk_width:%L txtBlk_linespace:%L txtBlk_charSpace:%L", txtBlk_name, txtBlk_photo, txtBlk_height, txtBlk_width, txtBlk_linespace, txtBlk_charSpace)

axlDMClose(p)
axlUIViewFileCreate(fileName, "REPORT", nil)
axlVisibleDesign(t)
axlMsgPut("Checking completed.See report.")
); end defun

defun( TextBlockcheck ()
p = axlDMOpenLog(lsprintf("%s_textblkcheck_Report", axlCurrentDesign()))
fileName = get_filename(p)
fprintf(p, "textblkcheck_Report\n\n")
;-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
fprintf(p,"TextBlock:\n\n")
q=axlGetParam("paramTextBlock:1")
txtBlk_name = q->name ; get the name field *** Case sensitive ***
txtBlk_photo = q->photoWidth ; get the photoWidth field
txtBlk_height = q->height ; get the height filed
txtBlk_width = q->width ; get the width filed
txtBlk_linespace = q->lineSpace ; get the lineSpace filed
txtBlk_charSpace = q->charSpace ; get the charSpace filed
fprintf(p, "name:%L TxtBlk_Photo:%L txtBlk_height:%L txtBlk_width:%L txtBlk_linespace:%L txtBlk_charSpace:%L", txtBlk_name, txtBlk_photo, txtBlk_height, txtBlk_width, txtBlk_linespace, txtBlk_charSpace)

axlDMClose(p)
axlUIViewFileCreate(fileName, "REPORT", nil)
axlVisibleDesign(t)
axlMsgPut("Checking completed.See report.")
); end defun
