Title: FileOpen Dialog And Loading G-Code?
Post by: HimyKabibble on March 16, 2009, 02:29:02 PM

How can I create a macro that will display a FileOpen dialog to open a G-Code file, then load the file?  The GetOpenFilename method that I use in Excel doesn't seem to work in Mach - gets a syntax error.  I want to create a dupliciate of the Open G-Code File button with some extra functionality.

Regards,
Ray L.

Get familiar with this page,  http://www.machsupport.com/MachCustomizeWiki/index.php?title=OEM_Buttons

Also looking at other screens will reveal OEM codes that are more obscure sometimes.

OEM button 216 is the one you are looking for.

Greg,

Yup....  Sometimes, you look at the list, and just don't see the one you're looking for.  Then you find it, or someone points it out to you, and you realize what a dope you are.....

Thanks!
