)
Details
- Parent Menu: OOF.LayerEditor.LayerSet
-
Callback: function

in moduleooflib.common.IO.layereditor
-
Parameters:
layer_number
- Number of the layer to copy. Type: Integer.
Description
Copy a Layer
within the LayerSet
currently being edited in the
Layer Editor. The Layer
and its DisplayMethod are duplicated, and the
new Layer
is selected in the Layer Editor.
When using the GUI it's often convenient to copy a Layer
and
then modify it. This generates a Copy_Method
command followed by a Replace_Method
command. In scripts this is sort of silly -- a single Add_Method
command would suffice. However, OOF2 log files have to follow
the sequence of events from the GUI, so they will contain a
Copy_Method/Replace_Method pair.
