[V8i] Level Display Layouts

A. I have been looking to create a command to achieve several Level Display dialog operations:

Assuming I cannot use a sequence of Key-In's, I prefer MVBA for a solution.

1. open the Level Display - A simple Key-In = 'leveldisplay dialog open' is easy enough

2. open to a saved Layout (Layout1-4). I cannot find how to define what saved Layout to open into, eg. Layout2?

B. I also am having trouble understanding how to delete a saved layout?

Also, where are these saved layouts stored; local to the dgn or upf...?

Cheers, Colin

    Layout functionality in MicroStation dialogs is "GUI feature only", it cannot be accessed by key-ins (I have not found any), which means cannot be controled by MVBA macro.

    Seems there is no such option available.

    It's easy to test: Open another design file in same workspace (the same user) > saved layout is still available. Change a user > there is no saved layour available. It means the layouts are stored in upf file (probably) or alternatively in some other user specific configuration files (I don't think so).

    With regards,
