Hi, @User I have noticed that in magic i can show/hide layers by left/right clicking on the layer panel, one by one. Is there a way to turn all the layers on or off...and make the layers icon reflect that (like all icons go grey when invisble and go back to color when made visble)?
I tried using see $ and see no $, but it doesnt seem to reset all layers' icons on the panel; so I still have to go clicking one by one to ensure they are all visible.
On a different note, would it be possible to set a bindkey such that, for example, only metals are visible and poly and diffusions arenot (a bindkey for running drc would be convenient) ?

The wildcard is
see *
and
see no *
. Also there are useful aliases in the techfile which allow you to do things like
see allm1
or
see no alldiff
.

Bindkeys are done with the
macro
command, so:
macro y "see no *; see allli,allm1,allm2,allm3,allm4,allm5
will bind the function you want to the "y" key.

Thanks Tim! I will try those!
Is it possible to change the size of the labels?
I have been trying to select a label and then use setlabel size 10 but the size doesnt change. I checked some of the magic tutorials but didnt find an example for label re-sizing.

@Emanuel Caceres: Give it actual units, otherwise "10" means 10 internal units which is practically invisible. Try
setlabel size 1um
or similar.

@Emanuel Caceres: If the label was not created as a rendered label, then sizing it won't have any effect at all. Use the
Edit->Text...
menu to create and edit labels. That GUI can also convert plain labels to rendered labels.

Thanks Tim! I didn't see how to make a rendered label on that menu (Edit-->Text)
What worked for me (in order to make it have a certain size) was to avoid using the font default (I had to change it with setlabel fontlist).
