Nethook - Determine Operation Type

[Karl@CP PISTONS]

Hi All,

If I have an array of all operations in the operation manager, What method or function is there to detirmine if the operation is a contour, circlemill, pocket, surface rough etc.... I'm looking for something like this:

 

If MyOperation(1) = pocket then

 

Do Something here like change pocket depth

 

Elseif Myoperation(1) = Contour then

 

Do something else like change tool number

 

End if

 

 

Using vb.net (express version)

 

Thanks

I just use Operation.Type. Its a number, not a string,... type 17 is a manual Entry, Type 4 is a transform, type -1 is unknown ....

Thanks rocheey1,

Do you know if there is some documentation as to all the mastercam toolpath types that available?

There is a help document available from the editor-help-vbscript menu that lists all the types.
