Skill code for LSW form

We don't have this currently available to us. but from my previous work, we have it. 

The LSW form stores whatever your setting on your LSW window, and it can restore it as well, it can store up to 6 or more settings depending on the coding.

For example:

- i have all selectable all visible ---> setting 1 

- metal 1,2,3 via 1,2,3, label 1,2,3 are selectable, the rest is unselectable --->setting 2

So i can call the form, and i can switch from setting 1 and 2 and can add other setting as well.

    Hi,

    There is an existing SourceLink solution 11270216 which may help with what you want to do, the solution creates a bindkey for loading a LSW Layer Set file. You could write a SKILL form to have a couple of buttons and load the appropriate file depending on which button was pressed.  Is that the sort of things that you are asking for?

    Regards,

    Lawrence.
