bindkeys in IC1.6.5

AlexGolberg
AlexGolberg over 14 years ago

I want to create set of bindkeys for managing work with layers.

For example, select layer, make layer visible/unvisible, make all layers visible/unvisible etc.,

that is to work with layers using bindkeys instead of Palette.

The  bindkeys i used in previous versions don't work with IC1.6.5

So, how to set bindkeys for layers in IC1.6.5?

    I've never used a palette.ini, but it is likely some text setup file for the layer palette. The code I sent you needs to go in some *.il file like bindkey.il and it will need to be loaded into the Cadence session before it will work. How are your current bindkeys loaded? You could put this skill with that code.

    Another option is to create a libInit.il file inside your library so that when data is accessed from that library, the Skill code contained in the libInit.il is loaded. You may put the bindkey.il in a central location for all projects and then put a load statement in the libInit.il that loads the code and any other code you may need.
