Many of you already received communications about the move of the Cadence user community into cadence.com. And many of you have already joined, with over 4000 registrations in the first two weeks.

The new Cadence Community enhances the ability of Cadence users to connect and collaborate. In addition to moving the community into cadence.com -- enabling single sign-on for community, Sourcelink and Cadence events -- the new site is organized around nine technology segments, giving you easy access to product information, training, forums and blogs. Some of the new features include:
  • Ability to respond to posts via e-mail
  • Technology-specific blogs
  • Latest Web 2.0 social networking capabilities
  • Public profile options
  • Private messaging
  • Friends lists
Visit the new Cadence Community today at www.cadence.com/community and join the discussions!

Registration note: Due to the scope of the enhancements and the new SSO registration system, we were not able to migrate existing cdnusers.org member accounts. So new registrations are required, but this enables a broader set of functionality we think you'll enjoy.

Forum note: Under the guidance of forum moderators, we have taken the 20+ cdnusers.org forums and consolidated them into 11 forums on the new site. Posts have been brought over so you can leverage that posting history. CDNusers forums will be set to read only starting 7/30, and cdnusers.org will be redirected to the new community on 8/4.

Best regards,
Mike and Tom

Hi All,

1) I want to be able to run a shell command
    axlShell("open")   
    to open a new file, but then a dialog comes up asking if I want to save the previous opened file, and this dialog blocks the subsequent skill code until I manually click the buttons.
    Is there anyway to continue running skill code so that I can automatically select "no"?

2) Let say I start an allegro shell function  -> new
    The "new" dialog box comes up and ask for my input for file name.. etc
    Is there anyway I can find out the names of the buttons  e.g.   button_ok, or button_cancel  without having the  .il and .frm file.  I need this to be able to send skill code to choose one of the buttons.

Thanks,
newbie

1) Does setting the NOCONFIRM environment variable help? axlSetVariable("NOCONFIRM", t)
1) This isn't the best way to do this. Use the axlOpenDesign Skill command.

Cheers, Dave
