Open a cell in Roboguide.
Expand the project tree.
Right click on Files node (under Robot Controller1).
You will have two options: Add or New file.
With Add, You will add an existing file to the project (file will stay at its original location).
With New File, You will create a new .kl file.
After using any of the options above, double click .kl file to open it on Roboguide text editor.
On Roboguide text editor toolbar You will find a Build button. Press it, and if .kl file is ok, without syntax errors, You will have a compiled .pc file.
If You get errors, You can try to correct them on Roboguide text editor itself.

Thanks for your reply massula . When creating a cell in Roboguide the following error occurs: see picture.
Do you know what is going on? I am running robotguide handelingPRO (trial) with administrator rights.
"RGCCommonWorkcellWizard.RGCWorkcellWizardIntereface_CreateWorkcell
Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at SimPRO.RGCCommonWorkcellWizard.RGCWorkcellWizardInterface_CreateWorkcell()"

I don't know what can be causing this error.
Anyway, how are you trying to create your cell? New cell, or from an AoA backup?

After adding Inboud rules for both Roboguide.exe and HandlingPro.exe I was able to create a project tree.
And followed your steps with succes.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but I am trying to do the same. Was able to load my AoA image into RoboGuide, create a KL file but in my text editor, the Build button is grayed out. I am currently on a temporary development machine and in a trial version, might that be why?
-
On some older FRVRC versions the build button was disabled. What Roboguide and FRVRC version You are using?

Hi Massula, RoboGuide 8.0 and FRVRC v6.31....

What's the output of ktrans /?.
you can run it in a windows commnad prompt

Hi Massula, RoboGuide 8.0 and FRVRC v6.31....
I'm almost sure that FRVRC 6.31 doesn't have Karel enabled in Roboguide. So in these cases, You would need to use ktrans command line utility that is bundled inside Roboguide.
-
Thanks for clarifying massula! I was able to sideload WinOLPC+ and it will do the Karel translation in there as well...I assume this just calls the command prompt from a 'fancy' Windows UI. I was also able to compile with ktrans from the command line so I guess the next step is to try some of the compiled code to see if the robot plays nice. Thanks all!
