Script to make visible dummy layer of those metal layers visible in LSW selection

Hi Neeraj

I think you need to use leSetLayerVisible instead of leSetEntryLayer, you might want to give that a try.

Cheers,

Hi Andy,

 I was getting this error for both   leSetLayerVisible & leSetEntryLayer as 

 *WARNING* (TECH-2000192): leIsLayerVisible: Invalid layer/purpose - ("layer" "drawing").

I am not able to set the layer as per my wish. So either i have to use a "when" and make the code huge or any other option to sort this out.  

Neeraj,

You have quotes around "layer" which means it will be treated as a literal string, rather than the variable you intended. Take these quotes away and you may get it working. (I have not looked in detail at this code, I just noticied this bit).

Thanks a lot Lawrence, the code is working fine .

I didn't get the error you did - because there's a missing close parenthesis on the first leIsLayerVisible. If I add that, then I get the error you got, because there's an erroneous open parenthesis on the if line. For good measure I declared all the variables in the code as local too - and it now works fine (it did without adding the let, but I though it was a good idea to add):

procedure(showDummySet()
    let((z layer x)
        for(i 1 9
            z="M"
            layer=concat(z,i)
            print(layer)
            x=leIsLayerVisible(list(layer "drawing"))
            print(x)
            if( x == t then
                leSetLayerVisible(list(layer "drawing") t)
                leSetLayerVisible(list(layer "slot") t)
            )
        )
    )
)

Note that we would recommend that you use a prefix for your function to avoid clashing with anyone else's function called "showDummySet".

Regards,

Andrew.
