Under

# Optional Output Settings

stock_info: yes$ #Display stock material and size/location?

 

Then I have

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

# Format assignments

# --------------------------------------------------------------------------

fmt X 7 stck_ht$ #X - Stock Height

fmt Y 7 stck_wdth$ #Y - Stock Width

fmt Z 7 stck_thck$ #Z - Stock Thickness

fmt X 2 stck_x$ #X origin of block

fmt Y 2 stck_y$ #Y origin of block

fmt Z 2 stck_z$ #Z origin of block

fmt 2 stck_crnr$ #Origin corner of stock

 

In the header section I have

pheader$ #Call before start of file

pstock_info #Stock information output

 

Then further down I have this"

pstock_info #Output stock information if requested

if stock_info,

[

"MATERIAL TYPE = "

if stck_matl$ = "NONE" | stck_matl$ = "", "*NOT DEFINED*", e$ #No material type was selected

else, stck_matl$, e$

#" ", e$ # Blank line

]

if stock_info & tlplnno$ <= one, #ONLY if in TOP plane

[

#If any stock values are empty, disable don't output

if stck_ht$ > 0 & stck_wdth$ > 0 & stck_thck$ > 0,

[

"STOCK SIZE = ", stck_ht$, " ", stck_wdth$, " ", stck_thck$, e$

"STOCK ORIGIN = ", stck_x$, " ", stck_y$, " ", stck_z$, "(", *stknote, ")", e$
