PCB Editor SKILL program for finding pin location

Thinker5112

Hi,

I wanted to find the location of a pin in the design using skill program. pin_dbids = axlDBGetDesign()->pins, this gives me all the dbids of the pins that are present in my design. But when im entering that dbid, pad = axlDBGetPad("000001EA8FD8B9F8" "package geometry/assembly_top" "regular") it is throwing an error stating "This dbid is not user defined. Please enter the user defined". So please provide me a snippet so that I can get the exact pin location in the design using skill script.

    Below is an example of getting the 4 corner coordinates from a bBox list:

    > orig = '((200 100) (400 500))
    ((200 100)
    (400 500)
    )

    > ll=car(orig)
    (200 100)

    > ur=cadr(orig)
    (400 500)

    > ul=list(car(car(orig)) cadr(cadr(orig)))
    (200 500)

    > lr=list(car(cadr(orig)) cadr(car(orig)))
    (400 100)
