Bindkey statement for toggling Transparent group.

Hi Team, 

Need help writing a bindkey statement for toggling TRANSPARENT GROUP on/off

For example I tried the below. 

hiSetBindKey("Layout" "<Key>F1" "swindow(31)->hiToolbars->lebOptionsToolbar_31->lebTrans->checked=nil")
hiSetBindKey("Layout" "<Key>F12" "swindow(31)->hiToolbars->lebOptionsToolbar_31->lebTrans->checked=t")

It works but its only for a particular window, and also it uses two bindkeys.

Do I need to use the above statement together with the hiGetCurrentWindow() statement to make the bindkey work for all the Layout windows?

Thanks,

Arokia

    Hi Arokia,

    This is probably not the best way to do but should work : 

    hiSetBindKey("Layout" "<Key>F12" "(deFindToolbar 'lebOptionsToolbar (hiGetCurrentWindow))->lebTrans->checked = !(deFindToolbar 'lebOptionsToolbar (hiGetCurrentWindow))->lebTrans->checked")
