Marco Classes

LayoutEditor macros are an object orientated scripting language. So there are several LayoutEditor specific classes. The most important classes would be the class layout and class drawingField. The class layout is the LayoutEditor main window. The class drawingField stores a complete design and includes method to manipulate it. A basic overview is described here.
