Macro programs consist of ASCII texts to:</p>

    <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">Combined cycles (e.g. Vorschnitte,

<p>Analytic curves and surfaces (ellipses, Ruled and Revolved Surfaces)
are always analytically worked on separately and NOT converted into

Moving the mouse horizontally causes a rotation around the
Z-axis. <br>
The center of the rotation always is in the the center of
the screen.<br>
Moving the mouse vertically causes a tilting around a
horizontal line in the center of the screen.</p>

The

y-direction; 180 is the inverse x-direction.The tilting angle is that
angle, which the vector with the XY level includes.<br>
</p>
<p>All vectors with same tilting angle (with variable angle of
rotation) form thus a cone around the Z-axis.&nbsp; The Z-axis has a
tilting angle of 90 degrees (independent of the angle of
rotation).&nbsp; In the example (90,30) the x axis 90 (around the
Z-axis);&nbsp; the vector corresponds now to the old y axis the vector
now in that level, which it includes now with the Z-axis, by 30 degrees
is tilted upwards.&nbsp; Vectors with positive tilting angle lie in the
positive z-semi-infinite space, vectors with negative tilting angle in

MAC subroutine name<br>
Beginning general subroutine. In the
subroutine can be accessed all variables. General subroutines are
dissolved for the Postproz.. Nesting level: to max 10 levels deep.<br>
Subroutine name must consist of at least 2 letters, then numbers can
follow.<br>
Geometry Elements are stored into the database, but are not indicated.<br>

CALL subroutine name<br>
Call general subroutine at the current position.<br>
Note: the subroutine name must be unique also upper/lower case is
significant.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
CALL "file name"<br>
A subroutine in a file implement. The
subroutine is without MAC and ENDS to store. At present cannot be
branched out in such subroutines to a further subroutine.<br>
<br>
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
GEO subroutine name<br>
Beginning geometry subroutine. The first
element is the starting line, then the outline, the last element of
this subroutine is the driving out line. Along the starting line the
correction is developed, diminished along the outline with correction
cut (G40, G41 or G42), along the driving out line the correction again.<br>
Subroutine name must consist of at least 2 letters, then numbers can
follow.<br>
In
the subroutine can be accessed all variables. Nesting level: to max 10
levels deeply. Geometry subroutines are put on for the post processor
as subroutines.</p>
