Distance command and clippromptlines Macro

Hi,

I was hoping someone could help me with a macro.

I usually have zero lines of prompt history. ( in my workspace )

But when i measure a distance.

I'd like to have 3 lines of history displayed. ( so i see my measurement )

Then click, and the history would return to zero.

And i would continue working as usual.

I can get it to change from zero to 3,then the distance command,

^C^CCLIPROMPTLINES;3;^C^CDIST;\\line\\

if i add

^C^CCLIPROMPTLINES;3;^C^CDIST;\\line\\CLIPROMPTLINES;0;

it doesnt display right.

Mark,

Hi 4 runner,

I think this will be better if you do it with a lisp

\\ and '^C^C are not working in a promptline i think

Maybe you should try to suite this lsp i use for displaying distances, maybe you like it.

Thank you Halam! I'm using LT

Also,i noticed i posted the wrong command . ( disregard the line command )

^C^CCLIPROMPTLINES;3;^C^CDIST;\\

^C^CCLIPROMPTLINES;3;^C^CDIST;\\CLIPROMPTLIN;0;

Drop LT ! Get Lisp !
