Select Insert | Flow Control Command | Looping from the menu bar to display the Looping Parameters dialog box.
Define the values in the dialog box.
Select parameters as needed (such as Number of Parts, Start Number, Skip Number, Offsets Angle).
Place the cursor in a location in the Edit window where you want to begin the loop.
Click the OK button to insert the LOOP/START command block.
The Edit window command line for looping reads:
VARNAME = LOOP/START, ID = Y/N,
NUMBER = 0, START = 1, SKIP = ,
OFFSET: XAXIS = 0, YAXIS = 0, ZAXIS = 0, ANGLE = 0
To complete the looping procedure, you must finish the loop with a LOOP/END command. PC-DMIS loops any Edit window commands encompassed by the LOOP/START and LOOP/END commands.
You can insert this command in one of these ways:
In the Edit window, type LOOP/END.
Select the Insert | Flow Control Command | End Loop menu item.
From the Looping Parameters dialog box, click the End Loop button.
