This allows to run any GeoDict command that a macro can execute.

For commands that produce GDR files, the function returns the name of the generated file, which can be different from the name specified if a file of the same name did already exist, e.g. "PoreSizes_no1.gdr". It is therefore recommended to use the returned file name when analyzing the results.

Input:

• command name, string
  • This is the name of the command as they appear in the Session Macro dialog, e.g. "GeoDict:LoadFile" to load a GDT file.
• parameters, dictionary
  • This is a Python dictionary holding the arguments as described in Structure of a GeoPy macro.
• version, string (optional)
  • GeoDict version for which this macro was written, e.g. "2025"

Example:

In the following example, the function is used to terminate GeoDict. For other examples, see also below under the getViewStatus or the getBuiltinDefaults command.

Works similar to gd.runCmd, but ignores unnecessary keys in the Python dictionary of the command.

Input:

• command name, string
  • This is the name of the command as they appear in the Session Macro dialog, e.g. "GeoDict:LoadFile" to load a GDT file.
• parameters, dictionary
  • This is a Python dictionary holding the arguments as described in Structure of a GeoPy macro. .
• version, string (optional)
  • GeoDict version for which this macro was written, e.g. "2025".

Executes a command from a *.gps file, that can be obtained directly from a dialog. The command has no return value.

Input:

• gps file path, string

Example:

If the desired settings for a fiber structure are saved from the FiberGeo Create Options dialog into a *.gps file with the name FiberGeo.gps, the fiber structure can be created with this command:

Returns the built-in default argument dictionary for a command. This can then be modified and passed to gd.runCmd.

Input:

• command name, string
  • This is the name of the command as they appear in the Session Macro dialog, e.g. "GeoDict:LoadFile" to load a GDT file.

Example:

Returns the current settings argument dictionary for a command. This can then be modified and passed to gd.runCmd.

Input:

• command name, string
  • This is the name of the command as they appear in the Session Macro dialog, e.g. "GeoDict:LoadFile" to load a GDT file.

Example:

Sets the settings for the given GeoDict command in the corresponding options dialog.

Input:

• command name, string
  • This is the name of the command as they appear in the Session Macro dialog, e.g. "GeoDict:LoadFile" to load a GDT file.
• parameters, dictionary
  • This is a Python dictionary holding the arguments as described in Structure of a GeoPy macro. .
• version, string (optional)
  • GeoDict version for which this macro was written, e.g. "2025".
