Exporting images for CDF forms to generate cellview documentation

Herge

For cellviews there exists a function "hiExportImage" which allows to generate an image file for a given cellview, opened in a (eventually hidden) window -- at least this is what I've understood. This should allow me to generate illustrations for all cells in a library automatically. Nice.

My question is about CDF forms : How could I automatically export images for CDF forms ? There is a "hiWindowSaveImage" function which can take handles to different types of objects including windows and forms. So the problem would boil down to getting the handle to the CDF form of interest. And here I am stuck -- I don't see how to programmatically get a handle to the CDF form associated to a particular cell.

Any suggestions ?

    Andrew, Bernd,

     I meant the object properties form in the schematic window ("the thing the user interacts with when inserting or modifying an instance"). From what I've understood, the outlooks are good then : fair chance that I can get it to do what I want. I'll try out next week. Thanks.
