How to Use 'Insertion Cycling' Through a Macro?

[MikeQeng]

Hello,

I needed some assistance with utilizing 'Insertion Cycling', in a dynamic block, through a command macro.

After discovering how useful of a tool 'Insertion Cycling' could be, I thought I'd be able to use the same old macro as before. What I ran into was that when the macro got to the pause for user input part, hitting CTRL to change insert points became the input and made the rest of the macro confused. I tried making some modifications but I'm stumped. 

Here's the macro I'm using: ^C^C^C-INSERT;blockname;\1;;\

Any input is appreciated, thanks!

Unfortunately it doesn't seem possible to cycle through grips while in the macro but you can preset the scale and rotation of the block and end the macro before the insertion point is requested:

^C^C^C-insert;"blockname";s;1;r;0

I've just noticed that your example also requires the user to specify the rotation so you won't need the ';r;0' in your macro.

Ahh, at least I got another pair of eyes to look at. I appreciate you taking the time to look at it, and thanks for the macro!
