Help with bindkey (toggle) for auto / single via

JJAP

Can you help combining this code into using 1 bindkey that can toggle between auto and single via?

procedure( viaAuto()
le0ViaForm->viaMode->value= "Auto"
leHiCreateVia()
)

procedure( viaSingle()
le0ViaForm->viaMode->value= "Single"
leHiCreateVia()
)

hiSetBindKey("Layout" "Shift<Key>o" "viaAuto()")
hiSetBindKey("Layout" "Ctrl<Key>o" "viaSingle()")

  • I've done it by doing this: 

    procedure( via_Autosingle_toggle()

    if(
    le0ViaForm->viaMode->value == "Single"
    then
    le0ViaForm->viaMode->value= "Auto"
    printf("Auto Via\n")
    else
    if(
    le0ViaForm->viaMode->value == "Auto"
    then
    le0ViaForm->viaMode->value= "Single"
    printf("Single Via\n")
    );if
    );if
    leHiCreateVia()
    );procedure

    hiSetBindKey("Layout" "Shift<Key>F3" "via_Autosingle_toggle()")

    Here's a cleaner approach that doesn't involve interacting with the form name (which won't exist if you've never done a create via in the session) and may be named differently if you have more than one technology in use in the session:

    procedure( CCFtoggleAutoSingleVia()
  case(leGetEnv("viaMode")
    ("Single" leSetEnv("viaMode" "Auto"))
    ("Auto" leSetEnv("viaMode" "Single"))
  )
  leHiCreateVia()
)

hiSetBindKey("Layout" "Shift<Key>F3" "CCFtoggleAutoSingleVia()")

    This works by looking at the env var that controls the form.

    Thanks for simplifying this, I'm new to skill and have only done if/else, I'm trying to learn case and condition.
