Manipulating layers question

Anonymous
Not applicable
Sometimes i may need to add a new layers.
But lets say i have defined 15-20 layers combos and i want for some of them the layers to be locked and to some of them not viewable.
Is there a way to do it in a wquick way and not picking its layer combo . editing the layers info i want and update?
This is soooooooooo time consuming.

Is there another way? If no i guess i would have to post to the wish list

I wish the layer control box would use a sliding view "button" (like in desktop windows) instead of just the up/down arrows. I have many, many layers, created by linked modules, and trying to manipulate an object drawn incorrectly on a layer near the top (or bottom) that needs to be reassigned to a layer near the bottom (or top) really wastes time as I scroll through ALL the layers. It would be very helpful to simply slide the bar to the top or bottom and go from there.
