Will the Best Fit Linestring sample macro be posted or uploaded to TMLStatus?

  • 1.  Will the Best Fit Linestring sample macro be posted or uploaded to TMLStatus?

    Posted 06-26-2019 18:18

    I installed this sample macro during PUG 2.0 (April 2019) and I'm not finding it on this forum or when I run TMLStatus.

     

    In TMLStatus, my copy shows up as a "local" TML - i.e. it's not registered w/ Rockpile yet.

     

    It seems like a neat macro - is Trimble going to post it on these forums or upload it to Rockpile?

     

    For a moment, I thought it had been turned into a command - there's a "Best Fit Line" command, but that's apparently a Geospatial command that takes points as inputs instead of a linestring.

     

    I was also looking for some description of what it does (or how it works) and tried Help (F1), but nothing came up.  So a post talking about it would be helpful/interesting.

     

    I have a copy of the .py and .xaml already, so I'm fine - but if others might find it helpful, or it breaks later, it'd be nice to see it on the forums or better yet, in TMLStatus.

    Heads up to anyone following this question, I just checked the Rockpile website, and the TML BestFitLinestring was uploaded to Rockpile's TML service (v1.51 10/16/2019) and later updated (v1.52, 12/16/2019).

     

    I couldn't find a blog post about it (for Help), but at least everyone can easily install and run the TML now.

     

    Thanks for uploading it @Gary Lantaff!
