Insert vector feature points at specified locations

dear guys.how to Insert vector feature points at specified locations?

there is a pcdmis template as follows,and i want to insert some vector points.but i get "no legal insertion point below"

............
MOVE/CLEARPLANE
$$ NO,
INSERT_HERE

pcdCommands = pcdPartProgram.Commands;

for (int i = pcdCommands.Count - 1; i >= 0; i--)
{
pcdCommand = pcdCommands.Item(i);
if (pcdCommand != null)
{
if (pcdCommand.GetText(PCDLRN.ENUM_FIELD_TYPES.COMMENT_FIELD, 0).ToString().Contains("INSERT_HERE"))
{
Command pointCmd = pcdCommands.Add(pcdOBT.BASIC_HIT, true);
pointCmd.Marked = true;
pointCmd.PutText("PT1", pcdEFT.ID, 0);
pointCmd.PutText("10", pcdEFT.THEO_X, 0);
pointCmd.PutText("10", pcdEFT.THEO_Y, 0);
pointCmd.PutText("10", pcdEFT.THEO_Z, 0);
pointCmd.PutText("0", pcdEFT.THEO_I, 0);
pointCmd.PutText("0", pcdEFT.THEO_J, 0);
pointCmd.PutText("1", pcdEFT.THEO_K, 0);

pointCmd.PutText("10", pcdEFT.MEAS_X, 0);
pointCmd.PutText("10", pcdEFT.MEAS_Y, 0);
pointCmd.PutText("10", pcdEFT.MEAS_Z, 0);
pointCmd.PutText("0", pcdEFT.MEAS_I, 0);
pointCmd.PutText("0", pcdEFT.MEAS_J, 0);
pointCmd.PutText("1", pcdEFT.MEAS_K, 0);

pointCmd.PutText("10", pcdEFT.TARG_X, 0);
pointCmd.PutText("10", pcdEFT.TARG_Y, 0);
pointCmd.PutText("10", pcdEFT.TARG_Z, 0);
pointCmd.PutText("0", pcdEFT.TARG_I, 0);
pointCmd.PutText("0", pcdEFT.TARG_J, 0);
pointCmd.PutText("1", pcdEFT.TARG_K, 0);
pointCmd.ReDraw();
pcdPartProgram.RefreshPart();
}
}
}

help!many thx!

I don't follow the c# exactly but I think you're trying to insert basic hits on their own into the program.

Basic hits must be part of a feature.

Make a Vector Point in a blank PRG, then export the BASIC and read it. That's the stuff you have to insert.

NinjaBadger may be on to something. You would want to insert generic/auto points.

The way to generate vectorpoints can be found in the source for "To points". However, here's one way to do it:
(taken from that very source)

Set cmd = PCDCommands.Add(602, True)
  cmd.Marked = True
  retval = cmd.PutText ("PT1", ID, 0)
  'Theo's
  retval = cmd.PutText (hX, THEO_X, 0)
  retval = cmd.PutText (hY, THEO_Y, 0)
  retval = cmd.PutText (hZ, THEO_Z, 0)
  retval = cmd.PutText (hI, THEO_I, 0)
  retval = cmd.PutText (hJ, THEO_J, 0)
  retval = cmd.PutText (hK, THEO_K, 0)
  'Targ's
  retval = cmd.PutText (hX, TARG_X, 0)
  retval = cmd.PutText (hY, TARG_Y, 0)
  retval = cmd.PutText (hZ, TARG_Z, 0)
  retval = cmd.PutText (hI, TARG_I, 0)
  retval = cmd.PutText (hJ, TARG_J, 0)
  retval = cmd.PutText (hK, TARG_K, 0)
  cmd.ReDraw
  PCDPartProgram.RefreshPart

insert/feature/auto/point/vector----i wnna this command
Command pointCmd = pcdCommands.Add(pcdOBT.VECTOR_HIT, true); right?

dear guys,i got it.
Command pointCmd = pcdCommands.Add(pcdOBT.AUTO_VECTOR_FEATURE, true);

thank you all!!

quentin66 - look at what Ego Murphy said above. It's the best way of looking what's required to generate / add commands in your program using automation methods such as vb and c#.
