I have a MPP created by rod1=rodCreatePath( ... ).

rod1 contains several subPaths (path1, path2, rect1, rect2 ... ).

How can I do the follwing operations using SKILL?

1. Delete path1

2. Un-attach path1 from rod1

3. Change path1 to another layer

Thanks very much.

    Sparksu,
    From your rod object, rod1, make sure you get your all of your shape ids that you need. Then you can use rodUnNameShape(rod1) to flatten the rod object. You can then manipulate the shapes however you want.

    The main path object is: rod1~>dbId

    The subShapes are: rod1~>subShapes
