Display Levels in Layout editor

Hi,

I know Ctrl-f and shift-f toggle between level0 view and full depth
view.

However, does anyone know if two bindkeys can be set up to
progressively set the display levels from 0, 1, 2, ....etc and back
down again?

It can be a bit tedious using the Display Options form if I'm doing a
lot of hierarchy traversing!!

thanks in advance.

Dougie.

 

Hi Dougie,

This is a quick attempt that defines a layout Bindkey Shift Mouse
scroll UP/Down to play around with the stop level.
You might tweak this skill at your convenience.

procedure(RKchangeStopLevel(incr)
let((stopLevelOld stopLevelNew)
stopLevelOld=hiGetCurrentWindow()->stopLevel
stopLevelNew=stopLevelOld+incr
unless(stopLevelNew>0
stopLevelNew=0
)
unless(stopLevelNew<dbGetMaxHierDepth()
stopLevelNew=dbGetMaxHierDepth()
)
hiGetCurrentWindow()->stopLevel=stopLevelNew
printf("Stop View = %d\n" hiGetCurrentWindow()->stopLevel)
)
)

hiSetBindKeys( "Layout" list(
list("Shift<Btn4Down>" "RKchangeStopLevel(1)");
list("Shift<Btn5Down>" "RKchangeStopLevel(-1)");
))
; Skill ends here

 

Thanks Riad. I will get on this today.

Dougie.

 

That worked exactly as I had hoped.
Many thanks again Riad.

Dougie.
