<<gr_off.mcl>>  <<gr_on.mcl>> 
I found these in my D:\sm11\shared\sysmcl sub-directory of my SmartCAM V11.5
install. I have installed it on my D: drive in SM11 as I chose the custom
install.
Now I seem to have lead you astray here. By simply typing GRAPHICS_ON[] and
GRAPHICS_OFF[] in your .mcl file, it will not do the trick as you'll get an
error. 
However, if you record a macro to do a Macro, Execute
D:\sm11\shared\sysmcl\gr_on.mcl then it will work. Like so...

MAC_EXE[FN="W:\\MCL\\GR_OFF"]
MAC_EXE[FN="W:\\MCL\\GR_ON"]// turns graphic windows on

In the above two sample lines it is looking in w:\mcl sub-directory because
I copied the GR_OFF.MCL & GR_ON.MCL files from d:\sm11\shared\sysmcl to
w:\mcl

Anyways, look in the ..\shared\sysmcl sub-directory and you'll find a whole
slew of .mcl files to explore. Have fun!

GRAPHIC_ON documentation?

                Is the command GRAPHIC_ON  documented anywhere?  I've been
looking for it 
                but cant seem to find it. Are there any other commands that
are not 
                documented?

                Thanks
                John

                To save on all the redraws it does try the GRAPHIC_ON and
GRAPHIC_OFF 
                macro
                commands as follows...

                NEW_GRP[]

                //
