Move Increment to Move Point Conversion Script?

Incredible.Mr.Lucas
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

  • OK, here are some thoughts I've had on this, now that the programmable keypad has been mentioned (I didn't even think about it being of any use).

    It would be doable, but would take some serious attention to detail, and some really screwy arrow control to get it to work, would probably take me less than an hour to come up with it, but Pcdmis is running so I can't play with it.

    Got a chance to test it, seemed to work OK, not great, but OK. Of course, you could ALWAYS just skip using the increment move and create a MOVE/POINT, type in (or copy/paste) the THEO values from the feature, then put in a math operation of what you want the increment move to do, you want to move -50 in X, then in the MOVE/POINT, put -50 after the x the value you put in there. Not exact, but will be pretty dang close.
