Eliminating a mid section of a loop -was- Re: multiple jam-things
Louie, you can eliminate a middle section from a loop with the EDP, by
using multiply. -or more accurately, sus unrounded multiply.
If your loop consisted of an A B and C section like you mention, you can
wait until B passes, and then engage sus unrounded multiply as C starts,
and then disengage it after the A section goes by. Now, you've
effectively eliminated the B section. Does this make sense?
As someone else mentioned, windowing can do this too, but this way may be
quicker and more precise I think. <smile> -HOpe this helps.
Smiles,
Cara
