Custom Layout toolbar menu

skillforpcells

Hello All,

I want to have customized Layout tool bars. but every time I set the tool bars in Layout and reopen it, the tool bars initially set are gone. I have to set my configuration every time and this is time consuming. I checked the CIW and found that each time I open the tool bars the command are different, for example If I open the search tool bar, I get

hiShowToolbar(swindow(10)->hiToolbars->leSearchToolbar_10)

next time

hiShowToolbar(swindow(11)->hiToolbars->leSearchToolbar_11)

How to deal with this and is there a posiblity that I can make configurations in a file and place them as layEdit.menus under menus ?

    My code is the result of an evolution from an old example, the code existed to create and insert the menus so it was used.

    I will now change my methodology to separate the creation and insertion phases of the menus, the create function would return the list needed for the menu trigger, the generic menu insertion function would insert the return value into the menu list. The insertion method function would only be called for testing.

    I have not worked with Workspaces much so it is good to find the save/restore/default solution.
