ISOLATE MULT. LAYERS

I used to work with Acad R14 and had a tool bar button to isolate/freeze several layers at once. I believe it was a bonus add on called layiso. Is there a was in Lt to write a tool bar command to do this. It is probably a no brainer but i dont know it.

The command structure at the command line is:
_ai_molc (or you could just pick the toolbar button for it, it's next to the
layer button, two gray sheets over a yellow one with an arrow pointing at
the yellow)
pick the layer to set as current
-layer
freeze
*



Make that into a toolbar button macro and you got:
^C^C_undo;_mark;_ai_molc;\_-layer;_f;*;_t;0;;

Use HELP to learn your commands and command structures and abilities, then
toolbar macro writing becomes real easy.

I tried looking up "_ai_molc" in HELP and could not find it. I wanted to see what the command was and if it might help me with my modification. I want to freeze a layer by picking an item on the layer. Where can i get information on commands such as _ai_molc?
Thanks
Mike

move your cursor over the toolbar button, hold it for a second,
notice how LT on the bottom of the screen describes the toolbar
button function.
