editDisplayLayerMembers [-fullNames] [-noRecurse]
editDisplayLayerMembers is undoable, queryable, and NOT editable.
This command is used to query and edit membership of display layers. No
equivalent 'remove' command is necessary since all objects must be in exactly
one display layer. Removing an object from a layer can be accomplished by
adding it to a different layer.
| int | Number of objects added to the layer |
| string[] | Query: List of objects in layer |
In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.
displayLayer, display, layer, member, relationship
createDisplayLayer, editDisplayLayerGlobals, layerButton
fullNames, noRecurse
| Long name (short name) |

descendants of the selected objects will also be added.

-fullNames(-fn)
|

(Query only.) If set then return the full DAG paths of the objects in the
layer. Otherwise return just the object's name.
