Editor.Command and Layer....

[Anonymous]

ok. I'm trying to use the editor.command method. it's in a modal command but is being called from events like "newFocus" or "layoutswitched".

still, I'm confused on why I get eInvalidInput no matter what I try.

if

ed=doc.editor

dim layname as string = layerToBeSwitchedOn

then I've tryied:

Ed.Command("_.-LAYER", "ON", LayerName)

Ed.Command("_.-LAYER", "ON", LayerName,"","")

Ed.Command("_.-LAYER", "ON", LayerName,vbcr,vbcr)

Ed.Command("_.-LAYER", "ON", LayerName,vblf,vblf)

Ed.Command("-LAYER", "ON", LayerName)

Ed.Command("-LAYER", "ON", LayerName,"","")

Ed.Command("-LAYER", "ON", LayerName,vbcr,vbcr)

Ed.Command("-LAYER", "ON", LayerName,vblf,vblf)

apparently, none of which is valid. please explain?

also tried,

Ed.Command("_.-LAYER", "ON", LayerName,"")

Ed.Command(new Object() {"_.-LAYER", "ON", LayerName,""})

Ed.Command(new Object() {"_.-LAYER", "ON", LayerName,"",""})

just, cause.

gave up, did it though non command line code.
