Lehicreatepath() queries

Hi guys

I am doing some routing in a layout, I am routing using the following paths

1. Layer M1 purpose e1, width: 0.05

2. Layer M1 purpose e2, width: 0.05

3. Layer M2 purpose e1, width: 0.204

4. Layer M2 purpose e2, width: 0.204

Is it possible to create  4 bind keys to call each of the 4 paths.

     Hi Adhil,

    I have my bindkeys set up to use M1, M2, etc as you describe.  You can use leSetEntryLayer

    to change the currently selected layer.  The default width of the route is normally  set by the 

    technology but you can change that by modifying the form during the route. (Hit F3 if the form does

    not appear) The new width will stay for the session.  The leSetEntryLayer command accepts

    a layer/purpose pair or simply a layer.( The purpose will default to drawing)

    Example:

    hiSetBindKey("Layout" "<Key>1" "leSetEntryLayer( \"MET1\" )
