Get 'enabled' state of cellview counter

$

Hello,

I have a few procedures, which use Virtuoso functions (eg. dbLayerHoles) to create temporary shapes in a layout. This also seems to work, if the cellview is read-only. The shapes are deleted afterwards, but the cellview is then still marked as 'modified'. I tried to temporarily disabled/enable the cellview counter with 'dbDisable/EnableCellViewCounter',  but I did not find a way to get the initial state, in case the counter was already disabled by another function.

Ideally, I would use a temporary editable cellview, but there also seems no way to create one without write-access to the library.

Is it possible to check, if the cellview counter is already disabled or is there a way to create a cellview just in virtual memory?

Best regards
Paul
