allegro script not exiting, worked in 16.6 but not in 17.2

jwhend

Hi all,

We use a script on a command line allegro execution that opens a board file creates PDFs and then exits. This works in 16.6 and if I don't use the -nographic mode:

setwindow pcb
generaledit
create fabpdf    <= SKILL PROGRAM
fillin yes
setwindow pcb
generaledit
exit
fillin no

We run this on the command line:

allegro -nographic -noconfirm -product Allegro_Performance -option Allegro_PCB_HighSpeed_Option Allegro_PCB_Mini_Option -s SCRIPTNAME BOARDNAME


If I remove the -nographic option, the script runs fine. But I don't want the graphic window to open.

Has anyone seen this? Is there a work around?

Thanks,

Jerry
