Move until contact creates a global variable?

I recently add movel until commands into my polyscope program and it’s creating “move_thread_Flag…” global variable and bogging up my variables tab.

I’m running 5.25.2, anyone else come across this issue?

Just mark the variables you want as favourites and check the “Show only favorite variables”

That was my workaround. I have been effectively utilizing the global variable in urscript and wanted to see if there’s another way than to manually set all the variables in the installation.

Orr do you know if there’s a way to set global variable in urscript to a favorite?

I don’t think there’s a way to flag a favorite via URScript, no. Those move_thread_flags really seem like they should be hidden variables… Then UR could have a checkbox to “show hidden variables” if that was something someone really needed to see for some hardcore debugging purpose.

I couldn’t agree more. I’m actually assigning and using the hidden variable very effectively in all my urscipt global variables. It keeps my variables tab clean and relevant - until this happened, so this is quite troubling for my workflow. I hope UR addresses this.

You can upgrade to 5.26 LTS (the latest and last) or try switching to Polyscope X, but I don’t know if they fixed this yet.
