SolidWorks 2001 Plus API

SolidWorks 2001 Plus API

(OP)
I have been able to set a SolidWorks 2001 plus layer, using Visual Basic 6 with the following line of code.
RetVal = Model.SetCurrentLayer("myLayer")
The layer called myLayer would become current. I have not been able to find the code to turn a layer on or off.  Can anyone tell me the code to turn a SolidWorks 2001 plus layer off and then back on again?

RE: SolidWorks 2001 Plus API

I have not tested this, but the visibility property is available for the Layer object (Layer::Visible). You can get the layer object using the LayerMgr object (LayerMgr.GetLayer).

Hope this helps...
