Move Increment to Move Point Conversion Script?

Confused Is anybody familiar with a script that will scour your program and replace all the Move Increments with Move Points in the alignment context in which the moves reside? My team really doesn't like Move increments, but I really like the convenience while programing. It would be neat if there were a macro that converts them all with a click of a button.Confused

  • Option 3? Just thinking out loud, but could a Read Point be inserted after each incremental move? That would get the XYZ coordinates. Might have to do this online. (May have to insert into an XYZ location dimension) Still have to extract from the readpoint or dimension and then insert into Move Points using variables. You would then have to go back in and delete the extra features/ dimensions.
    Disclaimer: I know diddly squat about PC DMIS scripting but have done programming in ancient versions of BASIC.
