Using ix and iy console commands with axlEnterPoint or axlEnterEvent

eDave

Has anyone succeeded in allowing users to use ix and iy in conjunction with axlEnterPoint or axlEnterEvent commands?

To my mind using axlEnterPoint(?points list(list(x, y))) should reset the last point - but it doesn't. So ix iy doesn't work correctly for me.

Alternatively does anyone know how to detect that ix or iy has been typed on the command line?

    Regarding your alternative question, ~15 years ago I implemented some skill code to intercept command line values to a specific command by using axlCmdList() to get the name of the internal procedure,

    then wrote another procedure that captures the command line values, calls the internal procedure with those values, then returns the arguments to a set of global variables

    I then used axlCmdRegister() to overload the original command with the new procedure

    The problem now is axlCmdList() doesn't return the core commands, only the 'ravel' related commands Disappointed
