Store the popup location of propertiesform

Mondeo205

Hi at all,

I've searched so much, but i can not find a answer, maybe someone of you know it!

Is there a way, to store the location i.e of the "Edit Instance Properties" form?
The hiStoreFormLocation function don't works in this case!  With this function, i was able to define all other windows i need, but not the propertyforms!

My Problem here is, that we have 2 monitors and my mainmonitor is the right one, but this propertywindows always opens on the upper left corner on the left screen and i want to have it on the right screen, thats a little explanation why i need this!!

Thanks for your help!

Best Regards

  • Are you talking about the layout or schematic properties form? Which version is it you're using?

    If it's the  layout edit properties form, then this definitely won't work - which is what my guess is. The form is not a SKILL form; it's a Motif form, and as such can't be controlled with the normal SKILL hi functions.

    If you were using IC613, you could use the Property Assistant (Window->Assistants->Property Editor) which is a persistent assistant, which you can then maximize your screen area by using the F11 key (Windows->Workspaces->Show/Hide Assistants) to toggle the assistants on or off.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
