Adding menu entries to ADE L window

ChrisEAS

While migrating some SKILL code from Cadence 5 to Cadence 6 I'm encountering problems with adding menu entries. On Cadence 5, I was able to add a menu entry to the Analog Artist window by using it's name "analogArtist-schematic":

 deRegUserTriggers("analogArtist-schematic" ... )

However, in Cadence 6 this name seems not to correspond to the ADE L window anymore. Which is the preffered way of including menu entries into ADE L within Cadence 6?

Cheers, Chris

    I'm feeling a bit uneasy about the menu file solution. What happens if there are other parties manipulating the menu file, especially when distribution the solution to a customer. I'm afraid this may clash somehow. Especially since the menu is not just added to the end, but the whole list of menu entries is specified literally. Isn't there another non-interfering solution?
