RE: [mfg-smartcam] Macro help

Title: Message

Gary,   You can create a text file that includes geometry info...   select the geometry and use File_Print_Data select Active Group, select File, input filename and location, select Accept   If you have an editor that allows writing to an open file (like ultra edit), then you can keep your output file open in the editor and have smartcam write to the same filename each time. Ultra edit monitors the files it has open and prompts you to reload the new file, this makes it easy to do what your talking about. You should be able to write a simple macro to use the print_data command.   Regards, Jeff -----Original Message----- From: gary [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2003 4:49 AM To: SmartCAM List Server Subject: [mfg-smartcam] Macro help I would like to write a macro or maybe it exists already to do the following.   Mouse select a entity.  Execute the macro, the macro opens a editor with all the element information.   This is similar to the F7 key but in a text editor so I can select, copy the information I need .     Regards, Gary
