Controller » Opskip tab
The Opskip (optional-skip, also known as “block-delete”) tab can be used
to change the optional-skip settings during processing in the same way

Off: MCD blocks with optional-skip codes will be processed.
On: MCD blocks with optional-skip codes will not be processed. For controllers with multiple levels of optional-skip codes, ON activates the “default” optional skip as defined in QUEST “Optional Post-processor Words / The OPSKIP Command” question #7.
Multiple: Specify the opskip level or levels to enable, as a comma or blank separated numbers. MCD blocks with corresponding optional-skip codes will not be processed.
When a block of MCD has an optional-skip character, a “DelOn” or “DelOff” trace will appear in the Output window if tracing Edited blocks. When optional-skip is active, the block is shown with the skipped portion of the MCD removed. When not active, the block is shown with the optional-skip character(s) removed.
