Description: Palette that turns off any layers that dont contain selected objects. There is also a button that will turn these layers back on.

Instructions: Put this script in the "scripts" folder. It builds a palette that will allow user to toggle objects off and on. These objects must be turned back on before quitting, otherwise the objects will remain off and need to be manually turned back on in the future.

As an added feature, if the user wants to turn all layers on, there is a third button that will turn on all layers. This was added in case the user toggled off objects and forgot to turn them back on before saving and quitting the form·Z file..

How to Use a Downloaded Extension:

For open scripts (.fsl), open the script in the Script Editor or open it within formZ.
Select "Script -> Compile" from the menubar
Make sure that a file has been built in your scripts folder with a .fsb extension.
If form·Z is open, quit and restart the program.
