dimlinear not working in a macro

[mrjagsr]

I would like to find out why the macro ^C^Cucsicon;or;ucs;3;._Dimlinear;\\\  doesn't work.

What I am trying to do is the following;

1. set the ucs icon to origin

2. set the ucs origin to 3 points

3. create a dimension based on the ucs settings

So far, the macro works up step 2, after that, it stops.

It never asks for any points for the dimlinear dimension.

What am I doing wrong?

You need backslashes for User input within the UCS command, before the Dimlinear command is started.  Try this:

^C^C_.ucsicon _or _.ucs _3 \\\_.dimlinear
