bindkeys in IC1.6.5

AlexGolberg

I want to create set of bindkeys for managing work with layers.

For example, select layer, make layer visible/unvisible, make all layers visible/unvisible etc.,

that is to work with layers using bindkeys instead of Palette.

The  bindkeys i used in previous versions don't work with IC1.6.5

So, how to set bindkeys for layers in IC1.6.5?

     Alex,

    For that you'd use leSetEntryLayer. This (and the functions I mention before) are documented in cdnshelp, with examples which show the syntax. It would be:

    leSetEntryLayer(list("M1" "drawing"))

    or

    leSetEntryLayer('("M1" "drawing"))

    For visibility, you'd use:

    leSetLayerVisible(list("M1" "drawing") nil)  ; for invisible

    leSetLayerVisible(list("M1" "drawing") t) ; for visible

    Regards,

    Andrew.
