IC 614 and CDS_USE_PALETTE

magal

Hi,

We're currently working on a project with a legacy process, and use IC614.

To make layout work easier, I'm setting the env variable, CDS_USE_PALETTE (pallette doesn't load by default in IC614 and I can't show only "used layers" otheriwse..)

However, this seems to mess up the bindkeyes setting - in what looks a random manner, sometimes they work and sometimes not - as if layer #'s are loaded wrong.

When I'm not setting CDS_USE_PALETTE bindkeyes seem to work fine.

Any help will be appreciated!

    Hi Matan,

    Assuming you're talking about bind keys for the layout window, my wild guess is that this might be that the focus is ending up sticking with the palette and when you hit a bind key it's going to the layer palette.

    Try setting this:

    envSetVal("ui" "sessionFocusPolicy" 'cyclic "CanvasDelay")

    in the CIW (or your .cdsinit).

    Not sure it's will help - but it might just be something like this. The default is "Click" which means you have to click back in the window to restore the focus.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
