write a dynamic skill Gui

Hi,

I was wondering if its possible ( and if it is then how exactly) can I write a gui in skill,

that its fields ( stringFeild) are not pre defined as  we normally do, but depends on (say) the number of  times the user click 

on device on schematic. each string field shoud( in this case) contain the instance name of the device that the user clicked on,and a new

stringfield should automaticlly  appear  right below the current stringField to contain the next instance name ( from the next click).

as far as I  familier with Guis in skill ( appForm), the HI structure must be pre-defined, but for example, in case of Pcell

the form can get change upon the user inputs.

thx

    Hi meny

    I think it is possible. You can try to define a procedure for left-mouse button single-click. In addition to doing the usual object selection, this procedure should also get the formID and update the string fields, etc as described in your post. We will most probably need a global variable to keep track of the number of times the user has clicked.

    Best regards
