This command will place a breakpoint in the pipeline that will allow the user assess their current progress before continuing. A dialog will pop-up and a custom message will be shown to the user along with two buttons: one allowing you to resume and the other if you wish to halt. The command is as follows:

Pipeline_Breakpoint /PAUSE_MESSAGE= ; The message can be formatted using a simple version of the rtf file format.

For example, the following command will output four separate lines in the breakpoint prompt dialg

Pipeline_Breakpoint /PAUSE_MESSAGE= {\rtf1\ansi\deff0 \pard One\par \pard Two\par \pard Three\par \pard Four\par } ;

Consider the following:

/PAUSE_MESSAGE=08/09/2017 by WSS Speed = 0.4 A forward slash (/) is a special character for pipeline commands that indicates that a parameter_name follows immediately afterwards. If an equals sign ( follows Visual3D confirms that a parameter was specified. Two equals signs (=, however, does confirm that a parameter was specified. Visual3D searches for an equals sign after each slash because this logically indicates that the user has specified a parameter. Pause_Message is assigned the string 08/09 Visual3D finds an equals sign after the next slash, so interprets the rest of the string as a new parameter /2017 by MJT using Modify_Speed_Metric_Ver01 Speed = 0.4 It doesn't do anything with this parameter because it doesn't recognize it. Solution remove the = sign /PAUSE_MESSAGE=08/09/2017 by WSS Speed 0.4 or specify two equals signs /PAUSE_MESSAGE=08/09/2017 by WSS Speed == 0.4
