    There's two ways:

    deGetViewType([windowId]) returns "maskLayout", "maskLayoutXL" or "maskLayoutGXL"

    hiGetAppType(hiGetCurrentWindow()) returns "Layout" "Virtuoso XL" or   "VLS-GXL" (bit inconsistent this one!)

    Regards,

    Andrew

    Thanks Adrew.

    I managed to find the function after my post. And you're fast too.

    Thanks
