Running macros without displaying GUI items
The NOGUI statement enables you to use PowerMill modes without displaying GUI items, for example, toolbars, mode-toolbars, dialogs or graphics.
To use Workplane macros without displaying GUI items, enter NOGUI
after MODE
, for example:
MODE NOGUI WORKPLANE_EDIT START "1"
To use Curve editor macros without displaying GUI items, enter NOGUI
after CURVEEDITOR
, for example:
EDIT PATTERN ; CURVEEDITOR NOGUI START
Note: As the NOGUI command runs the equivalent of GRAPHICS LOCK when the mode starts, certain operations involving the selection of pattern segments may not work correctly.
