leBalloonToggleOnOff( ) = need to turn on or off, not toggle

This is similar to my previous request (geToggleAreaSelectOption) but the solution for that does not work in this case.

1. I want to get the status of the info balloon and turn it on if it is off.

None of the following work:

hiGetCurrentWindow()~>balloonOn=t

leSetEnv( "balloonOn" t )

Mimicking the form does work but it is probably not recommended:

odcDisplayForm->odcInfra_InfoBOn_->value=t

_hiFormApplyCB(odcDisplayForm)

    Please take this up with customer support. It seems that the the balloon infrastructure only uses the cdsenv setting to track the form (and at startup), but it's only turned on or off via the Apply/OK button on the form, or via the toggle API you mentioned. I can't see (currently) a way of getting/setting the state from SKILL other than toggling it or going via the UI (which is horrible).
