Questions on Windows Functions

[New User ^_^]

Dear All,

I'm making some SKILL codes such that the labels in the cellview can
be changed to pins, so I call a window function
(leHiCreatePinsFromLabels) to do so. When I run the codes, a window
appears which is expected, but after that it STOPs until the button
"OK" is clicked.

So it seems that the program stops when a window function is called
and I need to click "OK" or "Cancel" so as to continue the program. Is
it possible to continue the program WITHOUT ANY CLICKING??

Any help would be very appreciated!!

the functions prefixed with Hi are Human-Interface function,
which interact with the user. To do something not interactively,
use the procedural functions (ie the ones not prefixed with Hi).
for example, use leCreatePath instead of leHiCreatePath
to create a path.

However, i don't think the leHiCreatePinsFromLabels function
has a procedural counterpart. To do the job you'll need a bit of
scripting, for example :

- search for labels on specified layers using leSearchHierarchy
- create pins with leCreatePin or leCreateAutoPin.

good luck
