15.7 NC Drill Legend not working on some computers

archive
archive over 19 years ago

Hi..

We have a number of users running 15.7 but some are experiencing the following skill error when trying to add a drill legend..

E- *Error* fprintf: argument #1 should be an I/O port (type template = "ptg") - nil

I am aware from other posts that we as the user should not see this type of message but if it helps to find a cure then fine.

The users who can run a drill legend and receive a table on the drawing also get this message although all looks fine!

E- *Error* _ncLegendCancel: too few arguments (1 expected, 0 given) - nil

Any ideas especially with the first part?

Thanks

    Is your drill path statement correct including . and ..

    set ncdpath = . .. /share/local/pcb/nclegend /share/pcb/text/nclegend

    do you have a site env which may not contain the reference to the current directory ( . )

    set SKILLPATH = . $CDS_SITE/pcb/skill
