DimiCamp Posts: 168 Rating: (49)	Thanks, both of you. In that case guess I'll have to work around like my C-Script setting a text on a StaticText that will generate the event "text change" in VB... Anyway, I'll try a little bit more to do it directly with C. If I succeed I'll will post it here... Best Regards, Dimitri.

Exists the function "long int GetLayer(LPCTSTR lpszPictureName, LPCTSTR lpszObjectName)", but don't exists a "SetLayer". I made a fast search in the ODK, and really, the Siemens document several functions to manipulate the layers with VBS AND VBA. I saw some functions that I believe to be possible to arrive in the edition of the layer in CS, but it is very difficult in relation to VBS and VBA. Well, anyway I ask, and how to change the layer in the WinCC 5.1??? Tomorrow I will look at WinCC 5. 0 what is possible. Stange, very Strange....

Ikkezelf Posts: 1084 Rating: (72)	Hi, I don't think you can set visibility of layers in V5.x have seen the GetLayer aswell and was wondering also why there wasn't a setlayer...
