bindkey problem.

Hi All,

I have some set of bindkeys for layers like (M1, M2...), but few of them are not working properly. To work that bindkey I have to press "Esc" button before pressing bindkey (let say <Key> 1)

when I check the definition of that bindkey (key 1)  in bindkey Editior window, I see some special command which I don't know under Enter function command column.

<Key>1               leSetEntryLayer(list("M1" "drawing"))                     drdEnabelPixelThreshold(!drdlsPixelThresholdEnabled())

  Can anybody tell me what is    drdEnablePixelThreshold(!drdlsPixelThresholdEnabled())     . And how to avoid it.

 Below is the code.

 

procedure( SMac(n)

               let( (a b)

              sprintf(a "<Key>%d" n)

              sprintf(b "leSetEntryLayer(list(\"M%d\" \"drawing\"))" n)

             hiSetBindkey("Layout" a b)

            ) ; let

) ; Smac

for(i 1 9 SMac(i))

----------

    This is described in solution 11857664. The new bindkey for key 1 is documented in the Virtuoso Design Rule Driven Editing User Guide, in the DRD Advanced Features chapter, under the section DRD Smart Snapping. It describes using the "`" bindkey to freeze the halo, and then using the "1" bindkey to temporarily turn off smart snapping, whilst keeping the frozen halo.

    If you don't need that functionality, you could override the bindkey as described in the solution.

    Kind Regards,

    Andrew.
