well all you did was to generate 2 parameters
"method=2|method=1"

Actually the script will reset the designators, but will not then
re-annotate them. Strange.

Hmm thought I'd sorted it but this doesn't work either:

The script runs but nothing happens.

Could someone please inform me how to pass parameters to processes in a
client basic script.
The following does not work:
'-----------------------------------------------------

'-----------------------------------------------------
' This macro will reset all designators, then redesignate

This was supposed to reset all designators before re-annotating them.
If re-annotate all parts is used on the Tools menu under Annotate, the
designators do not reset first, and R1 to R6 and R? would become R7 to R13
instead of R1 to R7.
Do I hear you ask " Why not just use redesignate ?Parts"?
Well if the new resistor R? was placed between R1 and R2 it looks a bit
messy as R7, ideally it would become R2 and the others to the right and down
would all increment one. This is the same as doing reset all designators
(method=2), then redesignate ?Parts, (method=1).
Instead of going through this two step process, I thought I'd write a script
that would be assigned to a toolbutton and/or hotkey.
Thanks,
Tom.
