MycadLAYERS used from the Commandline offers three optional operator selected lengths; Five, Twelve or Open but automatically defaults to Twelve when the Dialoge Box is used.
To set the Layernme lenGth from the Commandline press LG <enter>. Imediately therafter repeatedly pessing the <enter> key cycles the length through 5, 12 and Open.
The layername lenGth is reported in the Commandline response or can be checked at any time by reading the Status-line that reports current Layernamame, Layername lenGth, Dimscale and Line-type-scale.
(Currently there is a small flaw in the MycadLAYERS lisp program. causes the Commanline to fail if lenGth is not set to either five or twelve.
