Spool & Loops

[tchaithonov]

Hey there, how're things?

I am experimenting with the spool object and I wonder if I am trying to print a chart per variable from a model to a spool, how could I suppress a new chart window from popping up each time the loop reaches the printing point? Let me show you what I am talking about:

Code: Select all

%eqname = "eq_abc" %eqlist = {%eqname}.@varlist for !i = 1 to @wcount(%eqlist) %var = @word(%eqlist,!i) {%var}.line(p) next !i

As soon as the spool hits the {%var}.line(p), a new chart window pops up. I want it to print to the spool silently. What are my options?

Code: Select all

%eqname = "eq_abc" %eqlist = {%eqname}.@varlist for !i = 1 to @wcount(%eqlist) %var = @word(%eqlist,!i) do {%var}.line(p) next !i

As an alternative to redirecting your printer output to a spool, you could use the spool 'append' command. So instead of

Code: Select all

do {%var}.line(p)

you could use

Code: Select all

myspool.append {%var}.line
