automatic setIconName ?

yeh1

Is there a way in skill to force the icon name to "lay" for a layout window and "sch" for a schematic window?  Maybe some userPostInstallTrigger is needed?  hiSetIconName(getCurrentWindow() "sch") works manually but when I descend/return in hierarchy, the icon name reverts to the cellname, in the gnome taskbar (window selector).  Having a short name "lay" or "sch" makes it easier for me to identify the window in the taskbar, since I use one tabbed session window for layout and another for schematic.  Thanks.

  • I normally use KDE so that doesn't use the icon name (I'd have to restart with Gnome to test), but by just checking what hiGetIconName(hiGetCurrentWindow()) returns, I think this will work:

    procedure(CCFsetIconName(args)
      hiSetIconName(args->window
        case(args->viewType
          ("maskLayout" "lay")
          ("schematic" "sch")
          ("schematicSymbol" "sym")
          (t args->cellName) ; the default
        )
      )
    )

    deRegUserTriggers("schematic" nil nil 'CCFsetIconName)
    deRegUserTriggers("schematicSymbol" nil nil 'CCFsetIconName)
    deRegUserTriggers("maskLayout" nil nil 'CCFsetIconName)
    deRegUserTriggers("maskLayoutXL" nil nil 'CCFsetIconName)

    Regards,

    Andrew.
