![]() In this case, the project is automatically loaded when Altium Designer starts and can be executed at any time via the File » Run Script command. The script remains loaded for the current session.Ī more suitable method to access a frequently used script is to install the project as a Global Project from the Scripting System – Global Projects page of the Preferences dialog. Alternatively, the Select Item To Run dialog ( File » Run Script) allows you to browse to a script on your local hard drive or a connected managed content server then run the desired process. This requires the script project to be open in Altium Designer, which is not a convenient approach to accessing a script needed during the PCB design process, for example. For example, a script created to perform a complex set of operations while editing a PCB should be readily available in the PCB Editor itself, where it can be executed with a mouse click or two.Īltium Designer caters to this need by allowing a script to be assigned to a process launcher, and thereby a command that can be assigned to a Menu, Toolbar, and Shortcut.Ī script can be executed using the editor's Run command when open in the script editor. While the Altium Designer Scripting system provides the means to create sophisticated automated tasks for Altium Designer, the resulting scripts also need to be easily accessible during the design process.
