Toggle off visibility of assistants after opening schematics

Hi,

I am trying to toggle off the visibility of the assistants in the schematic(XL) view. The first question is: is there an environmental variable that will do this for me?

Assuming the answer is no I went ahead and tried to write a SKILL script to implement this:

/*************************************************************************
********************** schem_minimal.il *****************************
**************************************************************************

procedure( CCSUserPostInstallTriggerSch_ag(args)

deToggleAssistants()
schZoomFit(1.0 0.9)

) ; procedure


;; Triggers for adding it to schematic and schematic XL window

deRegUserTriggers("schematic" nil nil 'CCSUserPostInstallTriggerSch_ag)
deRegUserTriggers("schematicXL" nil nil 'CCSUserPostInstallTriggerSch_ag)
deRegUserTriggers("adexl-schematic" nil nil 'CCSUserPostInstallTriggerSch_ag)

*************************************************************************/

Which I then load in my .cdsinit file. However, it seems that even though the script will toggle the assistants off, they show up after my trigger rendering the procedure useless. Any idea of how I can execute the procedure AFTER the assistants have been loaded in the schematic?

Many thanks,

Alberto Gomez

    Hi Alberto

    If the objective is to disable assistants in schematic-XL, perhaps the following would be an easier approach:
    a. In schematic-XL, go to "Windows->Workspace->Set Default"
    b. Set "Classic" as the default workspace


    Best regards
