Hello,
Is it possible to use extracta to extract some data directly from .pad files, such as shapes or thermal relief names ?
I am using Allegro 16.5
I don't think that there is an extracta method, you could use "pad_designer.exe -nographic -s <script_file>.scr" where script_file.scr contains:
setwindow form.padedit
pse_open
fillin "<pad_file>.pad"
pse_summary
setwindow text
save
fillin "<report_file>.txt"
close
-You would need to build the scripts to dump a list of pad files from a given directory and then look at the pad files generated - you can also get the report from the pad_designer UI on a pad by pad basis.
try: extracta <padstack file> pad_rep result_file.txt
Thanks for your answers.
Finally, I found a solution: I used the following command:
report -v pad <padfile.pad> <outputfile.txt>
This command outputs a file in csv format that contains all informations I needed, and even more...
