How to save a list of Viva Windows as images?

Hi Folks,

I'm trying to save a number of open Viva Windows at one time w/o clicking on each one and have an issue as only the displayed one is save w/ the right content while the other stay dark.

Using the following code:

path = "/home/user/"
foreach( win awvGetWindowList()
        wTitle = awvGetWindowTitle(win)
        wTitle = strcat( path wTitle ".jpg")
        saveGraphImage(?window win ?fileName wTitle ?exactCopy t ?quality 100)
        )


Any ideas and/or hints how I could activate the related window before firing the save image command?


Thanks and best regards,

Norbert

    Hi Andrew,

    I'm getting:

    getVersion(t)
    "sub-version  ICADV12.2-64b.500.1 "

    Meanwhile found a workaround looking like this but would get the first and last window number before I can start the tiny script.

    Thanks and best regards,

    Norbert

    path = "/home/user/"
    winNR = 224
    for( winNR 224 523
            sprintf( winNo "win%d" winNR)
            _vvSetCurrentWindow("session0" winNo )
            win     = awvGetCurrentWindow()
            wTitle = awvGetWindowTitle(win)
    ;       win     = awvGetCurrentWindow()
    ;       wTitle = awvGetWindowTitle(awvGetCurrentWindow())
            wTitle = strcat( path wTitle ".jpg")
    ;       hiSetCurrentWindow(win)
            saveGraphImage(?window win ?fileName wTitle ?exactCopy t ?quality 100)
            )
