The check is that all move end-points are inside the joint limits. it doesn't keep a record of how close each point was to the limit to know if the coordinate system change is enough to cause a limit violation. I guess it would be possible to keep a record of the maximum extents of the currently-loaded file and use those limits in the case of a coordinate system change. I think you can abort the preview with "esc", though that is another incomplete solution. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1916 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Attend Shape: An AT&T Tech Expo July 15-16.
