RE: execute a macro with nx open api

Puriddu,
   I've been reading the online docs as of late because I want to venture into customizing UG beyond what is possible with GRIP.  I'm by no means an expert, but I did recall reading in the docs that macro support via a general motif call is NOT supported <Online docs: Open, Open API Programs, Types of executables, Internal>.  You can however call Grip programs...
   Sorry I couldn't of been more help.

RE: execute a macro with nx open api

What I have done in the past is made macro call grip. This gave a little more control and variables to macros.

Try using User Tools with macros.  A macro that will lunch a utd and then stops. From the utd, you can launch other macros that may run grips then re-launch utd. This combination may work for you.
