@CanDo415 Please update to 3.5.1 and double check your macro that it matches the one shared. Particularly the line number the error reports.

CanDo415

@Phaedrux
copied the macro.
I have to fix all problems from the update first. Messed up my whole config

"Error: in file macro line 37 column 12: meta command: unknown variable 'var'"
is the new result after updating to 3.5.1

@CanDo415 i have a mistake in my macro. i have corrected my original

CanDo415

@jay_s_uk
@Phaedrux
Error: line 37 column 22: meta command: unknown value 'degrees'
there seems to be a bit more

jay_s_uk

@CanDo415 i've made another change but I don't think its going to fix the issue.
I don't know why "degrees" throws an error though as its a built in command

CanDo415

that's why i added Phaedrux.

I want to change it a bit to get the corner as well. so the degrees issue has to be solved anyway.
Thanks for the great start jay

CanDo415

@dc42
maybe he can help?

droftarts

@CanDo415 @jay_s_uk

set var.var y_x_tan_rads=degrees{var.y_x_tan_rads}

There's a space in the variable name, ie var.var y_x_tan_rads isn't a valid variable name.

Ian

CanDo415

@droftarts
jay corrected it already.
the problem shifted to the degrees command

degrees() is a function

You've used curly braces instead of parentheses

set var.y_x_tan_deg=degrees{var.y_x_tan_rads}

try

set var.y_x_tan_deg=degrees(var.y_x_tan_rads)

jay_s_uk

@OwenD i knew it would be something about the way its been formatted
updated the original again

CanDo415

@OwenD
thank you for showing up the problem

the "-" seems important. otherwise the system gets turned the wrong way round

@jay_s_uk
i modified it quite a bit. some points are still not ready.
I'm not shure how to ent the if passage.
end if seems not to work

You have to indent the lines you want to be part of the conditional statement, thats a place to start at least.

CanDo415

@Exerqtor
like:

If var.y_2>var.y_3																; workpiece Zero coordinates
set var.x_5=var.x_4+(COS(ARCTAN(var.m_1))+COS(ARCTAN(var.m_2)))*var.d_probe/2
set var.y_5=var.y_4+(SIN(ARCTAN(var.m_1))+SIN(ARCTAN(var.m_2)))*var.d_probe/2
end if

If var.y_2<var.y_3
set var.x_5=var.x_4+(COS(ARCTAN(var.m_1))-COS(ARCTAN(var.m_2)))*var.d_probe/2
set var.y_5=var.y_4+(SIN(ARCTAN(var.m_1))-SIN(ARCTAN(var.m_2)))*var.d_probe/2
end if

?

Exerqtor

@CanDo415
No like:

if var.y_2 > var.y_3																; workpiece Zero coordinates
  set var.x_5 = var.x_4 + (COS(ARCTAN(var.m_1)) + COS(ARCTAN(var.m_2))) * var.d_probe / 2
  set var.y_5 = var.y_4 + (SIN(ARCTAN(var.m_1)) + SIN(ARCTAN(var.m_2))) * var.d_probe / 2

if var.y_2 < var.y_3
  set var.x_5 = var.x_4 + (COS(ARCTAN(var.m_1)) - COS(ARCTAN(var.m_2))) * var.d_probe / 2
  set var.y_5 = var.y_4 + (SIN(ARCTAN(var.m_1)) - SIN(ARCTAN(var.m_2))) * var.d_probe / 2

@Exerqtor
i tried this before in another case... everything unter the 2nd if wasnt done if the if doesn't match.
the problem of the missing end if

Exerqtor

@CanDo415
Then you simply must have done something wrong in the other case you're mentioning.

As reference to conditional construct have look at this.
