Thanks Hora, that is what I was afraid of... Can you recommend a good book for learning to use pro/toolkit? I don't know c/c++ but do know fortran/vis basic/matlab/unix scripting/ and a few others so it shouldn't be too bad.
<b>thanks!</b>

Thanks for info Ed,
I did try this way and it works as you say. The drawback, however, is that their isn't much control over the placement/size/font/etc. With the sketched datum curve text, you have full control and can even cut or extrude it into the part. Is there anyway to add parameter...
I tried the floor() and ceil() functions. They round to the correct value, but the value is still a real number. From Hora's example,
floor( .750 ) = 0.000
but, i would want the answer to be 0
also, if you look at the parameter list, "dummy" is listed as a real number. Then if i...
Does anyone know if you can make model (as opposed to detail) text parametric?
The only two ways I know to create model-text is to sketch a datum curve or a cosmetic.
I would like for the text to automatically be equal to a parameter. Then, for other text, I would like to define a...
Does anyone know if there is an integer function in relations to change a real value to an integer?
I am using a pro/Toolkit program that requires an integer value from a certain dimension on every part. Currently, we must show the dimension, round it, then type in the value. I would much...
Is it possible to add more functionality to mapkeys?
For example, ask the user for a number or part name, or display a description in the status window (without using the pause/resume feature)? Also, is it possible to add programming functionality like if-then and while-loop statements...
Are you wanting to repeat this surface feature repeatedly?
This is my case, so I created a UDF(flat surface feature) that refrences only three points or vertexes. Then, I created a mapkey that reads in the UDF and automates all picks but the three vertexes.
The result: I hit the mapkey...
