Toggle in schematic view 'Dynamic Net Highlighting' between On and Off using bindkey

Eric L14

Hi all,

In a schematic view, I would like to toggle 'Dynamic Net Highlighting' between On and Off.

When I set only the envSetVal, it does not work. 

The only way I found is to call schHiDisplayOptions() and make a hiFormDone(schDisplayOptionsForm) :

if( envGetVal("schematic" "schDynamicNetHilightOn" 'boolean) then
envSetVal("schematic" "schDynamicHilightOn" 'boolean t)
envSetVal("schematic" "schDynamicNetHilightOn" 'boolean nil)
envSetVal("schematic" "schDynamicNetHilightNoIslands" 'boolean nil)
print("Disable Dynamic Net Highlighting")
else
envSetVal("schematic" "schDynamicHilightOn" 'boolean t)
envSetVal("schematic" "schDynamicNetHilightOn" 'boolean t)
envSetVal("schematic" "schDynamicNetHilightNoIslands" 'boolean nil)
print("Enable Dynamic Net Highlighting")
)
hiRegTimer( "hiFormDone(schDisplayOptionsForm)" 1)
schHiDisplayOptions()

Is there a way to do it without calling schHiDisplayOptions?

Regards

Eric

    Hi Eric,

    It seems that the control for these enhanced highlighting options is not via the usual window property approach, but instead uses some private SKILL functions to enable it or disable it. 

    I suggest you contact customer support because I think it's reasonable that we should offer some procedural way of enabling/disabling the capability which doesn't involve you having to mess with a form to do so. So I think it's a valid enhancement request for a public SKILL function to do this.

    Andrew.
