Hi all,
There is a common part I work on that is straight with a transition toward the end and so I have created a 'calculator' sketch that updates overall dimensions based on certain input parameters.
I want to make this workflow more efficient by running a macro that:
- Opens the file
- Opens the sketch
- Prompts me for the 3 critical dimensions needed
- Exits the sketch
This way other people should also be able to use the calculator without any trouble.
So far everything does exactly what I want it to do except when I alter the value in the dimension window and click the 'tick' icon, it immediately reverts to the original value and moves on to the next one. How do I get around this? I've included a video that shows it happening. Recorded on my iphone so quality isnt great.
I had that part of the macro working fine in a previous attempt so can't understand what I'm doing wrong now?
Thanks
Oli
