Distance command and clippromptlines Macro

[4runner]

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;
