So I have this Wizard that I would like to call from a button on my new screen.
I can get to it by clicking the "Load Wizard" button and scrolling down the list, selecting it and then selecting "Run".
I am to lazy for that - I want to create a button that just calls my wizard.
What is the VB syntax for calling a specific wizard from a button ?
-
call loadwizard("Cut Arc") would open the Cut Arc wizard :)

Thanks Brian - we are off and running now :)

I tried what you said - call LoadWizard("wizard")
I created a button called "Call Wizard" on my screen which I have added to 1024.set and saved as a new name.
The VB Script for the button is call LoadWizard("Wizard")
On initially starting up of Mach3 (1.90.x) I do the mandatory EStop reset and then select my screen and press the call wizard button - it does not work.
If I go back to the first screen and select the button "load wizard" - and load any wizard - and exit out of that wizard and then go to my screen and my button works fine. Seems like something gets initialized when the "Load Wizard" button is pressed. A call to loadwizard() without initializing that something does not work. :(
Any ideas ? or did I stumble upon an undocumented feature ???
Getting Closer - :P

Sounds like a feature... It is off to Art :)

Hi:
This has to do with the database internally is not loaded until the first load of any wizard. Ill list this for correction so the Wizards are databased on startup.
Probably take a few versions to appear though..
Thanks, sorry for the bug..
