List Command
mark_serial_abs
Function marks the current serial number of the serial-number-set most recently selected via
select_serial_set_list (or of serial-number-set 0 after load_program_file) in the selected
format at the current position. In the called indexed text strings or characters (see below),
any absolute vector and arc commands will receive an offset (based on the current coor-
dinates at the time of the call). Afterward the serial number is (optionally) automatically
incremented.
Call
mark_serial_abs( Mode, Digits )
Parameters Mode See mark_serial.
Digits See mark_serial.
Comments • The mark_serial_abs command works like mark_serial; however, internal calling of the
indexed text strings (or characters) is via list_call_abs instead of list_call. If the
command lists of the called indexed text strings (or characters) contain no absolute
commands, then there is no difference between mark_serial_abs and mark_serial.
