Align tool UI

     You load scripts twice. Why, I don't know. Do not do that.
    Later I add checking for this situation. (thanks for suggestion :))

    Temporary sulution for "oops" error: 
     in initHotKeys() procedure update next line:
         let( (aliases alias aliasFun _oopsAlias)

     Tell me how it helped. I can't test this solution now.

    Also you can simle definу alias in env file.

    Hi John,

    I did not change the skill code but

    I load the skill code manually on the command prompt, the align tool menu pop out but the error still exit as below:
    Skill > align
    E- *Error* eval: unbound variable - _oopsAlias
    ERROR

    I will test out later, see whether the option of Align tools is working.Will let you know once I found anything strange.
    The pull down menu has no more align command if I manually load it.If I load it automatic on the apd.ilint, the pull down me having two align command.

    Thanks have a nice weekend.

    Regards
    Elaine

    Fixed: *Error* eval: unbound variable - _oopsAlias.

    Get revision: 59:f5873beef39b.

    About double loading, I tried, but not reproduce it.

    • I load by apd.ilinit
    • I load by allegro.ilinit
    • I use both apd.ilinit and allegro.ilinit

    Now I'm using allegro.ilinit for load scripts in APE and APD.
