using macro instead of keys while grread is working

[samifox]

Hi,

I'm using the grread command, and while it runs, I type keys to interact with it. Pressing keys on the keyboard works fine, but using a button macro with the same key terminates the grread command.

Is there a way to use the button instead of the keyboard key? If so, how can I do that?

 

thanks

You might get a better response if you explain what you are trying to accomplish, rather than just a very short, cryptic question. Please be more specific, and include what code you have and an example drawing of what you are trying to do with before and after states.

 

Note: the grread loop only processes raw keyboard and mouse data, and cannot interact with other functions for getting information from the user, such as the (getxxx), (entsel), (ssget), object snap input, etc. All these user interactions must be simulated within grread which makes for allot of coding.

 

There may be other ways to perform what you are trying to do, but we can't help you without knowing what that is.
