axlSetparam help to update artwork settings

All,

I am trying to change the artwork setting from negative to positive as below

Skill > r = axlGetParam("artwork:GND1")

param:79278264

Skill > r->negative = nil

nil --------------------------------------- here the value is changed converting negative to positive

Skill > axlSetParam(r)

nil

but when I use the axlSetparam to update its not getting updated. Can anyone help on this?

Appreciate your help.

Thanks,

Nagaraj

In the documentaton (table 2-35), the column with "Set?"must have a "yes" for the field to be supported by axlSetParam. Editing this field is not supported.

Thanks Frank. Is there a way to change the artwork film setting to convert negative to positive using skill?

I can think of deleting the film and recreating using axlDBCreateFilm command but just to know if other option is available to just update existing film parameters.

Thanks

Nagaraj.

The only way I know is; save the parameters, delete the film via axlDeleteObject, then re-add it via the misnamed axlfcreate API

Can I use axlSetParam() to toggle the Negative Artwork box in the Layout Cross Section? Or is that field not supported?

I'm trying to write a SKILL to automatically toggle that setting specifically change only Plane layers from positive to negative or vice versa in the Layout Cross Section.

Thanks to anyone for the help.
