Hi!

I'm trying to create some custom snippets on config.xml, and basically short snippets work fine, but huge BLOCK motion statements, don't.

Something like this:

JOINT SPEED9 ACCU1 TIMER0 TOOL1 WORK0 GROUP0  CLAMP OX= WX=  YO = ^H0, ^H0, ^H0, ^H0, ^H0, ^H0, ^H0 #[0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0] ;
 

I believe there maybe some limitation, regarding character length or something like this. Is the parameters of snippets section documented somewhere? I'm probably missing something, but I searched the manual and the forum and didn't found anything regarding this topic.

I'm using K-IDE 1.1.3.0.

Dear Massula,

thank you for your comment!

The Snippet may look like this:

<Snippet
  name="Joint Block">JOINT SPEED9 ACCU1 TIMER0 TOOL1 WORK0 GROUP0  CLAMP OX= WX=  YO = ^H0, H0, H0, H0, H0, H0, H0 #[0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0] ;</Snippet>
 
 

Please keep in mind that the snippets are line orientated. The snippet starts right after the leading xml tag (<Snippet>) and ends right before the closing xml tag (</Snippet>). If you insert line breaks that will also be added to the source code. Especially a line break after the leading tag will make the snippet invalid and unreadable for K-IDE.

While testing that snippet I realized that the cursor is not moved correctly to the first circumflex character. Normally the cursor should be in the position right before the first "H0".

Hi, Christian.

Worked like a charm. Thanks for the help!
