SetLayerRenderMode

Description

Sets the render mode of the referenced layer.

PROCEDURE SetLayerRenderMode(
				theLayer      : HANDLE;
				newRenderMode : INTEGER;
				immediate     : BOOLEAN;
				doProgress    : BOOLEAN);
def vs.SetLayerRenderMode(theLayer, newRenderMode, immediate, doProgress):
    return None

Parameters

Name Type Description
theLayer HANDLE Handle of the layer
newRenderMode INTEGER New render mode to set
immediate BOOLEAN If true, then all rendering will take place before the call returns. Otherwise, any rendering that can take place in the background will be postponed until program execution re-enters the main event loop
doProgress BOOLEAN controls whether progress information is displayed during the operation

Remarks

newRenderMode index corresponds to those listed above in getlayerrendermode call.

RenderNow - controls whether the specified layer will be re-rendered when the render mode is changed or not.

Display progress - ?? This might control whether the screen updates as it is rendering or not. I haven't been able to figure out a definite effect of this parameter.

Examples

{ restore saved view and delete it. }
VRestore( 'TempView' );
VDelete( 'TempView' );
SetLayerRenderMode( hObjLayer, nObjRender, TRUE, TRUE );
Layer(GetLName(ActLayer));{looks useless, but forces a layer redraw}

BEGIN
	Layer(GetLName(GetLayer(GetObject(RefGridPIOName))));
	SetLayerRenderMode( GetLayer(GetObject(RefGridPIOName)), pioTuneRenderMode, TRUE, TRUE );
	SetObjectVariableLongint( GetLayer(GetObject(RefGridPIOName)), 591, Name2Index( pioRWBackRsrcName ) );

BEGIN
	setview(rx,ry,rz,vx,vy,vz);
	SetPref (9873,FALSE);
	IF GetLayerRenderMode(hActLayer) <> LyrRendModeIndex THEN
		SetLayerRenderMode(hActLayer,LyrRendModeIndex,FALSE,TRUE);
END;
import vs

# Sets the render mode of the referenced layer.
theLayer = vs.ActLayer()  # handle to the active design layer
newRenderMode = 0
immediate = True
doProgress = True

vs.SetLayerRenderMode(theLayer, newRenderMode, immediate, doProgress)
