hello everybody, i'm just a total newbie in basic macro programming so this is probably a stupid question... i just played around a little bit with some examples and the macro recorder... i do not understand how to pass a tentative point to a macro. e.g. the following (recorded with the macro recorder and modified): Sub main Dim startPoint As MbePoint Dim point As MbePoint, point2 As MbePoint MbeSendCommand "PLACE LINE CONSTRAINED " startPoint.x = 72.065966# startPoint.y = -115.007869# startPoint.z = -0.000035# point.x = startPoint.x point.y = startPoint.y point.z = startPoint.z MbeSendDataPoint point, 1% point.x = startPoint.x + x-value 'calculated by some subroutine point.y = startPoint.y + y-value 'calculated by some subroutine point.z = startPoint.z MbeSendDataPoint point, 1% MbeSendReset MbeSendCommand "PLACE LINE CONSTRAINED " point.x = startPoint.x + x-value point.y = startPoint.y + y-value point.z = startPoint.z MbeSendTentPoint point, 1% ' recorded- clicked snap icon- clicked snap center point.x = startPoint.x + 4.392452# 'how can i get here the result of the snap ????? point.y = startPoint.y + 1.783401# point.z = startPoint.z MbeSendDataPoint point, 1% point.x = startPoint.x + 7.904211# point.y = startPoint.y - 2.047609# point.z = startPoint.z MbeSendDataPoint point, 1% MbeSendReset End Sub this should be drawing a 2nd line starting in the center of the first line but how to hand over the center point? who can help me?
