This object is used access a post processor within the program. A post processor is acquired from the ToolpathSaver objects :GetPostWithName(),:GetPostWithFilename() or:GetPostAtIndex() methods.
Properties
.Name
Interaction: Read Only
Returns: (string) the name of the post processor. This is the name displayed in the dropdown list within the program
.FileName
Interaction: Read Only
Returns: (string) the filen name of the post processor. This does not include the path to the PostP directory.
.Extension
Interaction: Read Only
Returns: (string) the file extension to use for toolpaths saved using this post processor. Does not include the.
For Example:
"txt" NOT ".txt"
.SupportsArcs
Interaction: Read Only
Returns: (bool) true if the post processor supports arcs. If arcs are not supported, any arc moves in the toolpath are output as a series of straight lines approximating the arc within tolerance.
.SupportsToolchange
Interaction: Read Only
Returns: (bool) true if the post processor supports tool changing.
.Wrap_X_Axis
Interaction: Read Only
Returns: (bool) true if the post processor wraps X moves onto a rotary axis
.Wrap_Y_Axis
Interaction: Read Only
Returns: (bool) true if the post processor wraps Y moves onto a rotary axis
