HI !

Here you go....

//Macro will export selected toolpath as template object

STRING template_name = INPUT "Save Toolpath Objects As..."
STRING $dirpath = project_pathname(0) + "/Template_Object_File/"

IF NOT dir_exists(dirpath) {
MKDIR $dirpath
}

EDIT TEMPLATESAVE SAVEPATH $dirpath

FOREACH tp IN explorer_selected_entities() {

ACTIVATE TOOLPATH $tp.Name
STRING filePath = $dirpath + "/" + $tp.ID + ".ptf"
KEEP ADVTOOLPATH $tp.name $filePath
}
