I am trying to make a macro that will make a tab on a sheet metal part
and then create a lead in and a lead out.
The cutouts will always be cutting counter clockwise.

Sequence of recording
1) chaining the group at the starting element I want to have the tab
2) split the starting element with the mouse option (not left or right)
making a .060 tab <gap width .120>
3) lead in is -90 degrees .200 long
4) lead out is at -90 degrees .050 long

How do I make the elements variables?

CHAIN[EL="Edit name elements", PJ=0]
SPLIT[EL="Edit name elements", LC=2, GW=.12, LN=.5, DS=0, FR=0]
LEAD_IN[EL="Edit name elements", AN=-90, DS=.2, LC=0, TY=0, CS=0, RP=0,
MO=0]
LEAD_IN[EL="Edit this is the last element in group ", AN=-90, DS=.05,
LC=1, TY=0, CS=0, RP=0, MO=0]

**Note---the CHAIN, SPLIT, & 1st LEAD_IN elements are the same and are
the 1st element in the group
the 2nd LEAD_IN statement element is the last element in the group


Thanks
