Video P*r*o*b*i*n*g / Re: Next version of Video Probing Plugin
« on: January 24, 2009, 01:49:48 AM »Hi Tom,
You can do ANYTHING that can be done in Mach VB Script (Cypress Enable) in a plugin by using the object model. You need to use the script function 'Code(gcode string)' and the script function 'IsMoving()' (return a boolean). If a function does not exist in the current implementation in the plugin tutorial it is pretty easy to add.

Hello James,
What I really would like to do is run a c++ application like StillCap or a VB application like VBVidCap (http://www.shrinkwrapvb.com/vbvidcap.htm) and just use Mach3 to move the axes.
How do I make a Mach function like Code() or IsMoving() global enough to call it from a separate program? Or call a global function in a Mach3 plugin which, in turn, calls a function in Mach3?
