Assign Pattern option ( disable or a way to set it )

Quarkdog1

 I am using the funckey "code below" and now with v16.5 a "Assign Pattern" window is popping up.   I am trying to either set the pattern or disable it completely so my "F" key is more effective.

 Thanks in advance for the reply :)

 

funckey F "generaledit; prepopup ; pop dyn_option_select 'Selection set@:@Clear all selections' ; set prompt ; prompt 'Enter Ref Des (on next step click pattern to keep it highlighted' ; refdes $prompt ; zoom selection; hilight  ;generaledit "

    Hi,

    I was wondering why you had "hilite" in the command in the first place.  It works for me without the "hilite".  Once I run the command it jumps to the entered RefDes.  The lower right corner of the GUI shows 1 selected object (pre-selected) and that is what zoom selection is centering on.

    Maybe you have something in your environment that is causing it not to work.  I would rename you PCBENV/ENV and create a new one with the first line being source $TELENV and the second line your Function Key alias and give it another try.  Here is an example:

    source $TELENV

    funckey F "generaledit; prepopup ; pop dyn_option_select 'Selection set@:@Clear all selections' ; set prompt ; prompt 'Enter Ref Des (on next step click pattern to keep it highlighted' ; refdes $prompt ; zoom selection ;generaledit "
