how do you create an on/off mapkey? i have one here that is set up for planes not sure how it was made or edited but here it is





mapkey $F9 @MAPKEY_LABELToggle Planes;\


mapkey(continued) ~ Select `main_dlg_cur` `MenuBar1`1 `Utilities`;\


mapkey(continued) ~ Close `main_dlg_cur` `MenuBar1`;\


mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `main_dlg_cur` `Utilities.psh_util_env`;\


mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `env_dlg` `DtmDsply_PB_DtmPlanes`0 ;~ Activate `env_dlg` `Apply_`;\


mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `env_dlg` `OK_`;


other question is how do i change the default yellow text color in drawing mode to blue?

Do you know what a macro is? hit the map key icon and record it and then save it. Then create a icon in config.win to run the macro map key. easy peasy...





The colored text thing I never cared to try and figure out...
 
sorry i should have said what i wanted to make exactly


file_open_default_folder working_directory


is what i have now but want to switch it to


file_open_default_folder in_session


with a mapkey maybe theres an easier way
 
tools>mapkeys... select the mapkey you wish to modify. click the record button and go thru the process of what you would like to do with your map key. clcik stop and save it.... it doesn't matter what content is in you map key, you just need to go thru the steps of putting everything you want in it.
