set default setting for ruler in IC6/12

chrisn

Hi,

 

Anyone know what i can put in my init file to set some default settings for ruler?

I don't want rulers as a savable object, snap target none and not selectable.

I have the follwing in my .cdsinit, but it's not working

leSetObjectSelectable("ruler" nil )
leCreateRulerForm->rulerTabs->page1->rulerSavable->value= nil
leCreateRulerForm->rulerTabs->page1->rulerSnapTarget->value="None"

When i paste the in my ciw, it does the trick

any ideas? (I'm using IC12)

     Hi Chris,

    This came up with another customer recently.  The command  leSetObjectSelectable("ruler" nil ) only works once the layer palette has been initialised (i.e. a layout is being displayed), and so it does not work in your .cdsinit.

    I developed the following workaround which should help you:

    
procedure(CCFnoRulerFilter(obj)
   unless(obj~>objType=="ruler" t)
)
leRegUserObjectSelectionFilter("CCFnoRulerFilter")

    This would be global for a session, so you might choose to activate this on/off with bindkeys (the filter can be removed by: leUnregUserObjectSelectionFilter() - there is no function to see if a filter is set or what the filter is, as far as I can tell).

    I filed CCR 1107225 for this problem, I suggest that you file a case with Customer Support and reference this CCR, requesting that it is fixed for you also - more requests allow R&D to know it is important for more than one customer, and they can prioritize accordingly.

    I hope this helps you!

    Regards,

    Lawrence.
