Hey HOOD, Hey BRETT,
I thought I'd give this a go but seem to have hit a stump.
Can you see what I am doing wrong ?
Thanks,
RC



I think I got it.
Thanks,
RC

Hey RC, I think you need a space between the second x&  (space here) "Y" . I would also get rid of the None at the top.

Brett

Thanks Brett,
I saw what Hood meant ....ie, do the same with Y & y.

I did have to loose the "None" too..like you said.

I learn something EVERY day around here.........IF I pay attention.

You guys are BRILLIANT,
RC

LOL,

You guys are BRILLIANT

Hood surley is, I just know copy and paste.    It is addictive isn't it?

Brett

Brett,
Can you tell me WHY I get this when I try to oped any of these macro's ?
I next get a license to agree to, then Mach opens with no screen set.
I also get this when attempting to dwnld from forum topics....macro's...I think.

Thanks,
RC

Brett, dang-it..I did it again.
Thought I had tried everything before posting. But....
I was trying to open them from the Mach3 folder.....wont work.
Go through the VB Script Editor...works every time.
Geeeesh,
RC

 I can take no credit for the code, I could probably do that now as I know the very basics of VB but at the time I put that button on my custom screen it was simply copied from the standard screen at the time.
 As Brett says you need the spacing correct, the way you have it now with the seperate G53Y on the next line will work but it will move X first then Y, if you do it like I posted the X and Y will move at the same time. I think if you wished you could have the G53 in with the Y but its just extra typing thats not needed
Hood

Hood,

So....."G53Z"&z& "X"&x& "Y"&y   would move all axis's simultaneously ? I realize that the Z should move clear first for obvious reasons.
Just trying to get a grip on scripting.
I'll try it.

I'll be danged....it works. The space goes.......see pic.

You guys are too modest,
Thanks,
RC

code "G53Z" & z & "X" & x & "Y" & y would, you need to have the spaces. I am not the best with VB, in fact I am just slightly better than useless
Hood

Oh just a wee tip for you when editing code that is already there. What I do if I am messing around wanting to see what works is put a ' before a line of code that I want to ignore. That way if I want to go back to the original all I need to do is delete the mess of code I have just added and then remove the ' where I put them in. I think you can also put rem in front of a line for it to be ignored but to me ' is easier
