X or Y 1/2 macro

[caul]

Hi.
I am new to UCCNC, and have studies the functions in UCCNC, but i would like very much to have a 1/2 X or 1/2 Y macrobutton on my screen.
A macro that gets the actual DRO position, divide it by 2 and put the result back in the DRO.
It would be a good help to have together with my edgefinder to get the center of my material.
I have done some screen editing and a macrobutton "goto Zero" for each of the axis, so dividing the DRO by 2, type it in again, and press my new macro works, but it would be great with a "X1/2" and "Y1/2" macro.
Can anyone help??
Thanks in advance

I don't have the docs here, and c# is case sensitive, which you need to fix, but something like this:

double CurrentX = exec.Getfielddouble(226); // Get X DRO value
double half = CurrentX / 2;
SetField(half, 226);
ValidateField(226);

Thanks Gerry.
Thanks for the code example.
Will try it as soon as possible

Actually, it should be this:

double CurrentX = AS3.Getfielddouble(226); // Get X DRO value
double half = CurrentX / 2;
AS3.Setfield(half, 226);
AS3.Validatefield(226);

For the Y axis, change 226 to 227.

Hi again.
I succeded in writing the macro's with a minor rewrite of the code:

Here are my files:

// Macro for 1/2 X

double Xposvariable = exec.GetXpos(); //Get X DRO value
double half = Xposvariable/2;

AS3.Setfield(half, 226);
AS3.Validatefield(226);



// Macro for 1/2 Y

double Yposvariable = exec.GetYpos(); //Get Y DRO value
double half = Yposvariable/2;

AS3.Setfield(half, 227);
AS3.Validatefield(227);

To finish my project about the X and Y 1/2 macroes, i made the buttons for the function in UCCNC.
Feel free to use them.
