alias or funckey

docb

I'd like to assign a key to toggle betwreen general/etch/placement with alias or funckey.

Is it possible to have a key toggle something like that?

    Here's an example of setting it to F5:

    alias F5 "settoggle CMD 'generaledit' 'placementedit' 'etchedit';$CMD"

     Hi,

     Is there is any way to toggle between layers????

    Eg: Top/Botton/Sig1/Sig2 etc....

     

    Regards

    @PRASH36,

    Probably.  Instead of providing an exact method, here's the general process for using an alias/function key that can be used for many different requirements:

    1) record a script that does what you want

    2) open the script file with a text editor to get the commands

    3) put the commands in your alias or function key assignment statement (using alias with settoggle is the example in this thread)

    4) see if it works
