Hi Mario,

 

Is there a reason that you can not use the General Selection toolbar to accomplish this? If you look on the General Selection toolbar there are two buttons on the Left hand side, "All" and "Only". If you press on the All button, the Select all dialog box will appear. Enable the Check box next to the Point/Style button and then click on the "Point/Style" button. The display box below the buttons should change to Point style masks. Then you can enable the 3D star type and press the OK green check mark. This will select all of the points in your file (assuming all of your levels are turned on). Then you can simpily press the delete key. Sorry I can't help you with a VB script for this (I'm not that good with VB yet), but I don't think you really need one. I think the General Selection toolbar already has the functionality that you need built right into it.

 

Hope that helps,

 

Colin

Hi Mario,

 

I should have read your post more carefully. You are running Version 9 correct? In version 9 you would do this: Delete - All - Mask (press the mask button at the bottom of the menu). This would get you into the Mask settings and let you select all of the 3D star point style.

Mario,

 

You would still have to press a button to launch the VB Script dialog box, navigate to the correct script, and double click the script to run it. Version 9 does not have the ability to map a VB script to a button (correct me if I'm wrong V9 guru's). You can do this in Mastercam X by creating a NETHook that associates a button with a VB script.

Hi Hardmill,

 

I know you can create a new toolbar button in Version 9, but can you map that button to a VB script?? I'm not sure you can do that in V9. Correct me if I'm wrong...

 

[connormac]

Yes you can map to a vb script.

In V9? So we lost the functionality in X?

Mario,

 

Can you create a macro to do this?

thank's

Mario,

 

I don't know. You'll have to read the Help on that one, unless someone else here knows. I haven't used V9 since X came out and I forget more of it each day. I never used macros in V9 and have only dabbled in it with X.

ScriptLinker has functionality allow for you 'map' a VBS script to a toolbar button (with your own icons) and/or keystroke in X.

 

ScriptLinker.ZIP is available on the forum FTP site here -> /Mastercam_forum/C-hooks/

all right but my probleme I am not able to make a vbs file

 

or associate a macro

 

 

excuse my english

From the doc file...

quote:

---

The DLL can be located “anywhere”, but the VBS file it is to run

must

be located in the folder configured in Settings-Configuration, File topic, Data paths!

I thought all chooks/nethooks have to be in the chooks folder. It doesn't really matter to me because it works!
