0 Pat Stanford Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 If a double click is acceptable you can create a set a scripts (or download them from VectorDepot.com) that when double clicked will change the state of the pref to the opposite. The script is just one line. Copy and paste this into a blank Vectorscript (created from the resource browser.) SetPref(5,Not GetPref(5)); This will toggle the Snap to Loci. Depending on which pref you want to change, change the number (in both places) and save with a different name. It is probably easiest to duplicate from thr resource browser and rename there. All of the prference selectors can be found in the VectorScript Appendix (see the VectorScript documentation), but here are a few of the key ones.

0 mike m oz Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Or if you want the easy solution Vectorbits has two menu toggles for VectorWorks Preferences and Document Preferences (free). http://www.vectorbits.com/ Quote Link to comment
