I've been writing my romer arm programs to end with a pointcloud operator exporting the scan so that no data is lost. I have added this command to the edit window thinking it would execute during the program with the rest of the features but for some reason it will only actually export if I F9 the command and click apply... during the program execution it still shows a progress bar and takes quite a while as if it was actually exporting it only nothing ever comes out....
