Multi Line Output

[ericbUU8RW]

The following code outputs tool information

 var tools = getToolTable();
    if (tools.getNumberOfTools() > 0) {
      for (var i = 0; i < tools.getNumberOfTools(); ++i) {
        var tool = tools.getTool(i);
        var comment = "T" + toolFormat.format(tool.number) + " " +
          "D=" + xyzFormat.format(tool.diameter) + " " +
          localize("CR") + "=" + xyzFormat.format(tool.cornerRadius);
        if ((tool.taperAngle > 0) && (tool.taperAngle < Math.PI)) {
          comment += " " + localize("TAPER") + "=" + taperFormat.format(tool.taperAngle) + localize("deg");
        }
        if (zRanges[tool.number]) {
          comment += " - " + localize("ZMIN") + "=" + xyzFormat.format(zRanges[tool.number].getMinimum());
        }
        comment += " - " + getToolTypeName(tool.type);
        writeComment(comment);
      }
    }

Like this

(T1 D=2.5 CR=0.125 - BULLNOSE END MILL)
(T2 D=0.625 CR=0.125 - BULLNOSE END MILL)
(T5 D=0.5 CR=0.25 - BALL END MILL)
(T8 D=0.25 CR=0. - FLAT END MILL)
(T12 D=0.2656 CR=0. TAPER=118DEG - DRILL)
(T13 D=0.375 CR=0. TAPER=120DEG - SPOT DRILL)
(T15 D=0.75 CR=0. - FLAT END MILL)
(T16 D=0.375 CR=0. - FLAT END MILL)
(T17 D=0.06 CR=0.062 - RADIUS MILL)
(T22 D=0.269 CR=0. - REAMER)

How can I break up each tools information to its own line? Like this

(T1)
(D=2.5)
(CR=0.125)
(BULLNOSE END MILL)

How can I add a "new line" to each "comment"?

Hello @ericbUU8RW ,

you can replace the 'comment' variable with the 'writeComment' command, as shown here:

I made this modification in the generic Fanuc post, but it should be the same for any other post.

Please test it carefully and let me know.
