    Hi Pankaj,

    In addition to what Andrew has said, you might like to take a look at parts of the code attached to this Solution Article - it shows creating a layer cyclic field which you can present on the form for selecting the metal layer.  Also, you can use the code that Andrew suggested to directly get just the metal layers, for example:

    metfuncs = setof(lpp techGetLayerFunctions(tf) rexMatchp("metal" cadr(lpp)))
    => (("Metal1" "metal" 3) 
          ("Metal2" "metal" 5) 
          ("Metal3" "metal" 7) 
          ("Metal4" "metal" 9) 
          ("Metal5" "metal" 11)
          ("Metal6" "metal" 13)
      )
    metals = mapcar('car metfuncs)
    => ("Metal1" "Metal2" "Metal3" "Metal4" "Metal5"
         "Metal6")
    

    Then you can limit the choices presented to the user to just be from the second layer (i.e. "Metal2" in this case) through to the second-to-last layer ("Metal5" in this example).

    Best regards,

    Lawrence.
