Getting Started with Lua

Once upon a time, I was a fairly proficient code writer--- like 20 years ago. Between time and changes in syntax and structure, the gears are getting stuck. Could I get a nudge forward? Given this code as a base, how do I return the number of objects on the selected layer? Currently, I get "no stati...

Gadget Reference Guide

I'm finally getting into writing some gadgets for some automated tasks that I do. I've watched the tutorials and downloaded the SDK, but I'm not finding a general reference guide. Is there a link/document of Aspire commands used in Lua?

For production runs, however, constantly swapping between a v-carve bit and clearing bit is very time consuming. To speed things up, I use the v-carve bit as a clearing tool with a stepover that gives me enough ...

Re: getting an error message i don't understand
