&lt;table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="95%"&gt;
	&lt;tbody&gt;
		&lt;tr&gt;
			&lt;td align="left" valign="top"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Alternate keyin for &lt;em&gt;selview&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
			&lt;/td&gt;
			&lt;td align="right" valign="top"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt;
		&lt;/tr&gt;
		&lt;tr&gt;
			&lt;td colspan="2" align="left" valign="top"&gt;Tired of using the keyin &lt;em&gt;selview [view number]&lt;/em&gt; in your scripts?&lt;br /&gt;
			If so, use &lt;em&gt;point absolute&lt;/em&gt; instead.&lt;br /&gt;
			This one uses the &amp;quot;active view&amp;quot; and therefore eliminates the need to keyin a specific view number.&lt;br /&gt;
			&lt;br /&gt;
			For example, instead of using this keyin which relies on you being in the correct view:&lt;br /&gt;
			&lt;em&gt;set lvlsymb toggle;selview 1;update view;selview 1&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
			&lt;br /&gt;
			Use this one - which does not care what view your in.&lt;br /&gt;
			&lt;em&gt;set lvlsymb tohgle;point absolute;update view;point absolute&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
			&lt;br /&gt;
			Thanks Rudi! &lt;/td&gt;
