)

Description

Changes the state of the lxLocalAbutment environment variable and honors the change immediately in Layout XL. Use this function to switch local abutment on and off without having to restart the software.

If you change the lxLocalAbutment environment variable in the CIW, the change takes effect only after you restart Layout XL.

To be able to show flight lines for open markers, the Annotation Browser must be initialized, although it need not be displayed on the desktop. To show markers when the browser is hidden, you must switch off the Remove highlighting when browser is closed option in the Annotation Browser Options form, otherwise there can be no visible incomplete nets to show and hide.
