Just sent you an email with more specifics, thanks for the help Roger. If you could attach some project examples in your reply I would be very grateful. I'll report back to this thread or make another post when I complete the project I am currently working on for community reference. Cheers

Thanks for the reply Roger! I am basically creating a rectangular prism with user specified side dimensions and depth. I need to create either holes or bulges (user's choice) at a user-specified depth on one of the object's surfaces at coordinates provided by a text-file. I have been looking through the header files provided in the sdk file but have been having trouble creating both a basic object as well as the interface required. Are there example c-hook projects available on the Mastercam site? I can only find net hook examples which is what attracts me to them. Cheers

Hi, I'm new to hook development and was wondering what you guys thought would be the best approach (C-hooks or Net-hooks) to the project I am working on. I am creating a 3d model of an object with the coordinates of the points being taken from a text file. I need to create a simple user interface which will manipulate the way the coordinates are used. I have created a C-Hook template which I have been trying to familiarize myself with but am unsure where to begin or if I should be using net-hooks instead. Again, I am new to this kind of development and would appreciate opinions on which kind of hook I should use or any extra development resources I can use. I am using VS 2013 community edition with X9 Cheers
