Altium script for schematic
« on: November 21, 2017, 10:37:12 am »
Hi,

I wonder if there is possibility to write a script that will go through all the components on the schematic/s and for example copy string from one of the parameters (if exists) to a comment field. We have a number of projects done by different engineers in different ways (not always appriopriate) and would like to introduce some common rules and apply them to already existing projects.

Yes.

Probably easier by hand. Unless you like spending 5x as much time to do an x amount of work.

Do anybody has more practical example of script that will allow to manipulate components parameters, comments etc. on the schematic?

Have you used the Parameter Manager before?

Great, thank you. I don't know how, but I haven't thought about using this tool...
