toggle hidden line selection on and off
this topic was originally posted in the general forum and it was suggested that i repost in the api forum instead, so here it is.
i would like to be able to create a toggle, whether it be by use of a macro or any other means, to turn selection of hidden lines on and off while working in a model.
does anyone know of a way to do this?

answer if anyone is interested, i found a macro on 3dcc in the assemblies category.
it works great.
hi jeff
put the following code in a macro and assign a shortcut key to that macro (you can find out how in the help files)
option explicit
dim swapp as sldworks.sldworks
dim hlvbool as boolean
public sub main()
set swapp = application.sldworks
hlvbool = swapp.getuserpreferencetoggle(swuserpreferencetoggle_e.swedgeshiddenedgeselectioninwireframe)
if hlvbool then
swapp.setuserpreferencetoggle swuserpreferencetoggle_e.swedgeshiddenedgeselectioninhlr, false
swapp.setuserpreferencetoggle swuserpreferencetoggle_e.swedgeshiddenedgeselectioninwireframe, false
else
swapp.setuserpreferencetoggle swuserpreferencetoggle_e.swedgeshiddenedgeselectioninhlr, true
swapp.setuserpreferencetoggle swuserpreferencetoggle_e.swedgeshiddenedgeselectioninwireframe, true
end if
end sub
