SKILL Object Trees

Biradin88
Biradin88 over 4 years ago

Hello,

Which document I can use to check the children objects of parent objects for Allegro 17.4 SKILL programing? The same for parameters of objects. I want to see what I can access by using '->' on object.

For example MyText->text where MyText is a selected text returned from axlGetSelSet( ).

There should be something like object tree for any Symbol,Cline,Text,Shape etc..

Example:

MyText->text

MyText->textBlock

MyText->justify

Thanks
