I have subroutines like this for connector cutouts, but they don't even take a position parameter. You position the tool where you want the feature (typically with G-code) and then call the sub. The first thing that the sub does is G92 the as-called position to zero, then it cuts the shape, then it clears the G92 offset. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite!
