Question of WCS in vb

[maks]

Hi All;

Does vbs can change WCS function in automatically? like "RunMastercamCommand"

Thanks!

[Bullines]

You can run the view manager with this:

 

code:

---

Call RunMastercamCommand("namview")

---

but that's it, as far as I know. All of the functions that you can run directly are located in your Mastercam EXEs accompanying text file. So if you're running Mill, look in Mill9.txt for a section called "(function name: description [maximum length: 8:30]"...it should be near the 2830th line of the file.
