Need a simple macro/script

1

Looking for a simple macro to do the following:

create a new layer (just like press the ‘+’)
make it visible
delete the top layer content

anyone can help me?

Thanks!

Here is a script that creates a copy of the current layer and deletes all paths, components (shapes), and anchors from the current layer:

layerCopy = Layer.copy()
layerCopy.name = "Copy"
Layer.shapes = []
Layer.anchors = []
glyph = Layer.parent
glyph.layers.append(layerCopy)

You can use layerCopy.setVisible_(True).
