Command Overview

Evaluate two selected strings, against either a block model or drillholes, produced by linking the selected to create a wireframe.

Evaluation results can be saved to a new object using the Save Results option on the Evaluation Results screen. Data is saved as a results object (visible in the Loaded Data and Project Data control bars) and can be saved to a physical file. Any existing evaluation results of the same name are overwritten.

This command displays the Evaluation Settings screen, followed by the Evaluation Results screen.

Note: you can evaluate against either model or drillhole data. This is set using the Project Settings screen (Mine Design > Evaluation Control).

Command Automation

You can automate by passing this command and parameters into oDmApp.ParseCommand(), using any COM-aware scripting language.

Note: For more information on scripting in Studio NPVS+, please refer to your Scripting Tutorial (Help > Scripting Tutorial).

Example Parameter String (JS):

oDmApp.ParseCommand("evaluate-2-strings @point=100.0,200.0,0.0,1 @point=120.0,210.0,0.0,1 '10' 'yes'";

Where:

@point=100.0,200.0,0.0,1 is the first ParsePointArguments: X,Y,Z,nButton for the first picked string.
@point=120.0,210.0,0.0,1 is the second ParsePointArguments: X,Y,Z,nButton for the second picked string.
'10' is the strBlockID: a string value parsed as a numeric block identifier.
'yes' is the strAcceptResults: a string value parsed to a yes/no intent. (Parameter is not actually used so can be left as the example and ignored).
