Hi i have downloaded latest file RotateSilkAssyRD.il. it is V2.2.

Now when i tried to load the file, i use this along with nsware code:

Data of "allegro.ilinit"

; load the nsWare framework and products
load("./RotateSilkAssyRD.il")
load("./nsWare/nsware.il" "nsware" )

it loads only nsware in toolbar. how do i use the silkscreen script? please elaborate.

thanks.

    Hello.

    The RotateSilkAssyRD Skill script does not load into the menus.  You run it by entering "rotate_silkassy" at the Allegro command line (no quotes).

    That code was taken without approval from the author. The person who posted it stripped the author's name. You should not be using it. Sorry, I won't help with this!

    Hey Redwire,

    Please don't get me wrong, you helped Mr. Dipak Desai

    Don't the instructions give you a different command?

    From the file:

    ;#  Usage:  rotate_silkassy (from within Allegro)                          #

    Try typing that command at the command line instead.

    Why???? if it is so.

    thread was:How to start a Skill file from Allegro command line

     

    Refference from thread: Silk Rotate skill file

    is this script written by Mr. "eDave"?

    he had created different version of this script.

    if not than who is the real author?

    I didn't write the original. The code (with the author's details apparently stripped) was posted in January 2011 and a few of us innocently helped to get it working. It has taken on its own life since then.

    It is difficult to prevent people doing this which is one reason that I post some code in a context form.
