Get current command option

psill
psill over 12 years ago

Is there a better way of getting the current command option than from the command option gui?

Is there a celliew/window variable that has the current option and the other command options?

Example of part of the script:

 case( hiGetCurrentCmd(hiGetCurrentWindow())

              ("Stretch"
                        unless(boundp('leStretchForm) hiDisplayForm(leStretchForm))
                        if(hiIsFormDisplayed(leStretchForm) hiiToggleEnterForm(leStretchForm))
                        theForm         = leStretchForm
                        currOpt         = theForm~>keepWiresConnected~>value
                        optList         = theForm~>keepWiresConnected~>items
                        unless(dirBool optList = reverse(optList))
                        optAssoc        = buildOptList(optList)
                        nOpt            = cadr(assoc(currOpt optAssoc))
                        theForm~>keepWiresConnected~>value = nOpt
                        printf("Set option %s\n" nOpt)
                        hiChangeBannerLabel(win sprintf(nil "%s\n" nOpt) 0)
                )
