VB and the development of wizards / Programmers Reference Manual for Mach3 Version 4?
« on: May 31, 2011, 11:15:03 AM »
Can someone help me find documentation for the changes to macro programing that are coming with version 4?
The "Mach3 V3.x Macro Programmers Reference" listed on the main documentation page says that "Mach3 version 4 will provide a completely new... interface for CB macro programming." (from Page 1)
I've been away from Mach3 for a couple years, but had many, many hours of experience using/programming Mach2 and Mach3 with a previous machine. I'm working on 2 new machines now and need to create new macros. I've tried digging through the documentation, the Wiki, and this forum, but I can't seem to find info on the "new" v4 programming changes. Some of the info out there seems to say that v4 was called "Quantum" and was scrapped and v3 continues to be upgraded, so I don't even know if there is a v4 coming or if v4 is already here. (I know the current download is R3.043.22 but as I recall, the jump from Mach2 to Mach3 didn't involve drastic changes to the documentation or user interface. My Mach2 user manual still covers most of the current Mach3 screens.)
Glad to be back using Mach... This community is full of inspiring work and creativity.
Thanks in advance for your help.
