Allegro SKILL code needed

evgy

I need to check distance between "SILKSCREEN" - TEXT and Assembly, and i don't want to make mesurement from bBox to bBox.

Maybe someone knows how to convert TEXT object to SHAPE?

    Hi,

    I do understand what you are trying to do. By creating shapes from the text you should be able to use the axlAirGap command to then measure between the newly created shapes and the assembly shape of the component you select. It's not a huge amount of programming and the code I posted should help you.
