AndyC Posted November 10, 2010 Posted November 10, 2010 Can anyone see what the difference is betwen the following two macros. The first one works and allows me to first insert an incremental number and then a block. The second, where i have swaped the order around and have tryed to insert the block first does not work. It allows me to insert the block and end simply ends and does not attempt to insert the incremental number. MACRO 1 ^c^c-layer;m;"LB-T007-SET-OUT";c;WHITE;;l;continuous;;;-insert;"LB-setting-out-point";sc;"~";;;;$M=$(+,$(getvar,USERR1),$(getvar,USERR2));setvar;USERR1;$M=$(+,$(getvar,USERR1),$(getvar,USERR2));-insert;"LB-setting-out-point";sc;"~";; MACRO 2 ^c^clayer;m;"LB-T007-SET-OUT";c;WHITE;;l;continuous;;;_text;\;;$M=$(+,$(getvar,USERR1),$(getvar,USERR2));setvar;USERR1;$M=$(+,$(getvar,USERR1),$(getvar,USERR2));-insert;"LB-setting-out-point";sc;"~";; Quote
BIGAL Posted November 11, 2010 Posted November 11, 2010 macro 2 need -layer a layer will pop up the layer dialouge box Quote
AndyC Posted November 11, 2010 Author Posted November 11, 2010 Thanks for the response That was a typo and have correctly added -layer at the start, but the macro still stops after (getvar,USERR2)); and will not run the -insert part of the command. see amended macro below ^c^c-layer;m;"LB-T007-SET-OUT";c;WHITE;;l;continuous;;;_text;\;;$M=$(+,$(get var,USERR1),$(getvar,USERR2));setvar;USERR1;$M=$(+ ,$(getvar,USERR1),$(getvar,USERR2));-insert;"LB-setting-out-point";sc;"~";; Quote
