Hi Orson,

I think I understand now why I didn't thought it didn't work. If you press
X for routing and then press E, it gives you the Interactive router
configuration. Instead, if you haven't go to routing mode and press E, it
modifies the track/via with the value configured as it is supposed to. The
difference is that in the non-opengl, it does the same thing to track/via
if  you are in routing mode or not.

About layers shortcuts, I know those but for me is way faster to use the
numbers when you use 4 or more layers so I prefer to use non-opengl in
those cases.
