    Creation of padstack using command line orguments Reply

    I want to create a pad in allegro "123.pad" through command line orguments,could anyone have idea to do it windows environment.

    Let me explain the same with example:

    If I type 29c12 press enter,it should create a 57c40.pad with 57mils circular pad and 40 mils drill,mask is same as pad. also it should create a thermal (If it is through hole) based on drill size using batch file(.bat).

    Regards,

    Satya

     This is something that would best be served by using a SKILL program to create the padstack. Look up axlDBCreatePadStack in <install_dir>\share\pcb\examples\skill\DOC\FUNCS for the synopsis and some examples.

    Saving of existing pads is simple... you can either do a library dump (File-Export-Libraries) or do a Tools-Padstack-Modify Design Padstack-Save As
