How to sort operations in X?

[bryan314]

Anybody know how to reorder operations in X.

 

Back in 9 I'd just call list_op_reorder but this function has disappeared.

 

I found reorder_operations in the docs but when I feed it a list of op idns in the order I want nothing happens.

I think reorder_operations might be working, sort of. Last night, I ran the function, and then manually saved and reopened the file. The ops were in the new order. Mastercam doesn't seem to be updating the operation manager. Anyone know the function to force update/refresh/regen the ops manager display? Or am I supposed to set some variable so that it refreshes when the function is called?

 

Thanks for any help.

IDARRAY OpIds;

reorder_operations (&OpIds);

 

 

Clayton told me to add this in the chook headers

extern DllImpExp int OMrefreshOpManTree(void);

I hope more functions listed in the next sdk headers!!

MasterShake,

 

Does OMrefreshOpManTree work for you? One of the MC guys had me try it last week and it only works every other time my chook is called. OMrefreshOpManTree (supposedly) only works when it sees a change in the operation list and for some reason reorder_operations doesn't mark the list as changed until my chook exits. So OMrefreshOpManTree fails. When the chook is run the 2nd time, the list is marked as changed (from the previous run), and it works.

 

They seems to be doing much better with the MCX SDK headers and documentation than they did with 9. So here's hoping stuff like this is added to the next release.

Oww sry,I have not checked it yet..

I asked SDK Inbox about it 3 weeks before,and

I was also told to try that last week.

 

 

I just tried and it didnt work, it made me sad..

I thought it would solve the problemm hmmmm.

code:

---

 DllImpExp void OMinitOpManTree( char collapse_op, char collapse_group); 

---

This function call does work. But it seems to be a bit 'nuke' option to reinitialize the entire tree.

[Takashi Sato from Ai Solutions.]

yeah, this is much better for me.

 

All can I do is just looking at export table of mastercam.exe,and waiting for new SDK release.
