    Howto to or example script to run a powershell script to download key-stroke sequences for routine (field-tech) tasks?

    I am not sure what you are asking here - can you provide some more details. Version 5 of Trimble Business Center has a new Macro Programming capability that can be used to develop automation commands inside Business Center to satisfy repetitive tasks. The Macro Language is not a simple script or keyboard macro capturing tool however - it is a programming language based on the Python (Iron Python) programming language.

     

    If you have something else in mind, please provide details and I will try to answer your question.

     

    If this is an enhancement request - let me know and I will add it to the list - i think that you are requesting that we provide a keystroke recording function to automate / semi automate repetitive sequences of commands (as there was in Terramodel for example). At this time we do not have that, however I can add the request to the list. This is a little trickier to do in Trimble Business Center because we dont have a Command Line in the same way that Terramodel did, however that may come in the future of course.

     

    Thanks for the question
