NOt sure what your looking for. Do you want to change the attributes or parameters from the postprocessor? No can do. that is why it is called a Post-Processor. It creates output FROM the operations, parameters and attributes not the other way around. The post is a downstream activity.

Sounds like you need some user function

I think your only option is to extend tcl with an API program.

In NX9, we added a command MOM_set_attribute that will let you assign attributes to CAM objects from the post, so this will be easier in the future.

Thanks for your attention.
I though that I need some coding. I think I have to run some kind of batch program through TCL, am I right?
Is it possible to do it only with TCL?
