Hi

How do you toggle between two windows in ic6. for example, the layout window and the calibre window

    Adhil,

    I'm not sure what you mean by toggling, or how you determine which two windows you want to "toggle" between. Most window managers have some means of cycling through the open windows (for example, in KDE I can use Alt-Tab).

    You could potentially write some SKILL to use hiRaiseWindow() and hiLowerWindow() maybe - but that's not going to work with a "calibre" window because that's not part of Virtuoso and is from a Mentor Graphics tool - so Virtuoso has no idea about it. You'd probably need to use something dependent upon the window manager you're using.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
