changing Ruler Display Type thru envSetVal

MalcolmWhite

Just wondering this question : I would like to change the value of ruler variable "rulerDisplayType" which lists as type 'cyclic in HELP menu

I can see the environment variable value with envGetVal, but I cannot change it with envSetVal - it appears I must address this by calling the

form where this setting is used by changing the value in leCreateMeasurementForm->displayType->value.

Just wondering why this situation works like this.  Is this because the variable type is 'cyclic ?  would it be changeable with envSetVal if it

was a boolean type ?

thanks

Malcolm

  • Hi Malcolm,

    Looking at the create measurement command and form, it seems that the env variable is only looked at the very first time the command is used in a session. It probably should update the form each time it is used.

    I filed CCR 2043242 for this. You might want to contact customer support and ask for a duplicate to be filed on your behalf so that you can track this (always helps to get the request from a customer rather than just me internally).

    Regards,

    Andrew.
