Circuit Builder ace_cb_insym usage

[djs]

I am trying to create some custom Circuit Builder files. I would like to get some assistance on the usage of the command "ace_cb_insym". In particular I would like to insert a symbol with certain attribuites filled in. I am trying to use the following syntax:

(c:ace_cb_insym  #xyz nil "VT1002" #scl 8 MFG="WEIDMULLER";CAT="1020000000")

However that is not working. In fact it looks like it cause the command to fail altogether as not even the symbol is inserted. The following syntax does work:

(c:ace_cb_insym  #xyz nil "VT1002" #scl 8 nil) (c:ace_cb_catalog_lookup  @table @mfg @cat @asm nil)

however that requires operator input. I would like to have the abilty to select the part within Circuit Builder and not have any operator intervention.

Can someone help me out?

Hi.

Try using:

(c:ace_cb_insym  #xyz nil "VT1002" #scl 8 "MFG=WEIDMULLER;CAT=1020000000")
