Template:AddSurface
VectorScript
PROCEDURE AddSurfaceExample; VAR h1, h2, h3 :HANDLE; BEGIN DSelectAll; CallTool(-203); h1 := FSActLayer; DSelectAll; CallTool(-203); h2 := FSActLayer; h3 := AddSurface(h1, h2); IF h3 <> nil THEN SetFPat(h3, 5); END; RUN(AddSurfaceExample);
Python
The python code will not pause for the execution of CallTool, that's why it uses a callback mechanism for the script to know when the temp tool has finished.
