| Active | Features are highlighted using the style settings for the selection set |
| Inactive | Features are displayed using the default style settings for the layer. Style settings for the set are ignored |

If a feature in the named selection set is also contained in other selection sets, the settings for those sets also affect the appearance of the feature.
If lyr_set_name is null, SetDisplayStatus() changes the display status of the entire current layer.
If lyr_set_name has a null selection set, SetDisplayStatus() changes the display status of the entire layer.
Only a status of Active or Invisible is valid on the entire layer.
