Hello Analogspiceman
Did you (or somebody else) try to run schbuilder;exe under W10? When I run it , at the moment when I try to save the schematic I have apop windowwih: " Unable to create file " " Press OK to ignore and risk data corruption " " Please cancel to kill the program " I press OK but can't find the expected file anywhere. I can see a trace of the file : a shortcut to the expected file in %APPDATA%\Roaming\Micosoft\Windows Regards PhB |

开云体育It looks as though the program tries to save in a Windows protected location. Is there an option to set which folder to save to? ? With best wishes DESIGN IT IN!

开云体育That indicates an internal issue in SchBuilder.exe, probably about compatibility with Windows10. ? With best wishes DESIGN IT IN! OOO – Own Opinions Only J M Woodgate and Associates Rayleigh England ? Sylvae in aeternum manent. ? From: LTspice@... [mailto:LTspice@...]

Hi ,
Are you running it as administrator? W10 is picky about such things. Dave N From: LTspice@... [mailto:LTspice@...] Sent: 11 August 2016 12:26 To: LTspice@... Subject: [LTspice] Re: SchBuilder.exe Windows10 Hello John " Is there an option to set which folder to save to? " Yes, SchBuilder offers you to choose your directory. SchBuilder is installed in a private partition (not C:) and I try to save the built schematic in this partition. Regards PhB |

Hello PhB,
I brought the code for the Schematic Builder program in today.? It is a little large for this group, but maybe I could upload it to the LTspice files group.? I noticed that I wrote it with Lazarus 1.4.X, but that the latest version of Lazarus is 1.6.0 (32 or 64 bit).? I installed it but haven't tried it yet.? Lazarus is an open source version of Pascal / Delphi and works very well (fast, full featured and few bugs). The version of the code I brought in has an experimental "Anneal" function that is intended to reorder the placement of the component symbols in order to minimize wire connection length and crossovers.? It is interesting but is not fully successful. ---In LTspice@..., <basier.philippe@...> wrote : Hello Eetech00 Thanks for your answer. I am a little bit disappointed by it -:) I hope analogspiceman could give me more details on the popup windows I see. Regards PhB |

The zipped file is not too large for this group, so please see:

Hello Analogspiceman
Thanks for answering. Does it mean you fouind a problem with W10? By the way I thought about an "improvement". Would it be hard to add a little bit of wire at each componets node. That would? allow to use the LTspice function "Highlit net" to see in aglance all components tied to a node. Regards PhB |

Hello Analogspiceman
I realize that my previous description of the problem is not correct. In fact when I run Schbuilder I can red in "Config" Panel: "(config file not found, using default " "ERROR: LTspice symbol folder not found! "! " The file SchBuilder;cfg is in SchBuilder;exe folder. Eetech00 wrote? " I run it on W10 with no problems.. " Do you succed too ? Regards PhB |

Hello PhB,
After you have installed the latest version of Lazarus, double-click on SchBuilder.lpr to open the project. Please let me know if it seems as though any files are missing. ---In LTspice@..., <basier.philippe@...> wrote : Hello Analogspiceman Thank you for uploading the source of SchBuilder. I'm going to upload Lazarus. It's a lot of time that I used it. So I fear I'll be long to be efficient. Regards PhB |
