Hello i'm a newbie and like to know if this can be put in a script.
I like to fetch data then automatic make the plot then save the plot to a file or even ftp it to an internet server.
Hope some of it is possible and you can tell me the script for it.

Marcel,
Yes, it can be done. The details are found in both the help file or the manual.pdf. Look for the topic called 'Scripting'. It will tell you all you need to know to start writing your own scripts.
hth,
Bob

I seem to have a "small" problem I'm using the script with this option export,c:\Digital\synop.gif
This should take care of making an image and export it to the directory on my computer but no it's not doing that. I can do an export by hand but I realy need the script to do it. What's wrong with my code?

Code: Select all

#Ana_Boden#
erase
analyze,HILO CONT CINT=5 LINE=2 SLPR

Stamp
export,d:\programme\dawp\maps_out\temp_boden.gif
Hmmm,
can you manually generate an map (menu: analyze->temp.->xxx)
and is the data successful loaded (menu: file->view raw data...)?
No luck

It's realy strange there is no image exported to the Harddisk what ever I try I can do al other things but that I can't. Can it be because the program is still in 30 trail mode?
Al other options taken by the script are working.

What happens if I don't register?
Certain features in your evaluation version will stop working after 30 days. You will still be able to retrieve, import, and create maps, but certain features are disabled. These features are restored when you register the software and you get your key; you simply enter it in Help > Register. Your registration is appreciated; not only does it make your copy legitimate but it goes to pay the author's mortgage and groceries. Rest assured you aren't just feeding some corporate bank account.
Hmmm,
ask Tim for this problem - i use DAW pro.

I asked Tim about the problem, the strange thing is that it writes down the synop text file with data onle the image file is not exported. It is made according to the Panel on the left and shows Ready but I can't find any file on my computer. I'm waithing for an awnser from Tim hope it comes soon.
