Colin,
I had considered the text file generation, but I kind of like the 'in-your-face' style of the popup windows.
To be honest, I had not yet considered filtering the depth cuts until Jamie had brought it up, and the way that I approached it made the most sense to me. The subsequent refinement for multiple chains was a result of the first refinement.
The suggestions you made will be looked at in the new post that I am working on. Thanks for the feedback.
For those of you that have already edited this into your post...
The following fixes the repetitive popups on multiple chains:
Change this:
ptlchg_errorpop #Pop-up common toolchange errors
if DepthCuts = 0, errorcheck = 1
else, errorcheck = 3
To this:
ptlchg_errorpop #Pop-up common toolchange errors
if DepthCuts = 0,
[
if NumEntities = 1, errorcheck = 1
else, errorcheck = 3
]
else, errorcheck = 3
In the pparameter$ section, add this:
if prmcode$ = 15084, NumEntities = rpar(sparameter$, 1)
In the variable format area, add this:
fmt 4 NumEntities #Flag for Contour Chains
For those of you that have not done anything yet, I have edited the original instructions to incorporate these refinements.

I use Norton for my main then for plain and simple AVG there basic free version. These days you should always have something.
