SKILL defined custom menus in ViVA graph window?

I'm familiar with using deRegUserTriggers() to trigger a call back for schematic, schematicSymbol, maskLayout, etc windows to install custom menus.  For CIW I can find the window with hiGetCIWindow(), ciwMenuInit(), hiGetBannerMenus() to dig through the menus and install/update a custom one.  For ADE-L, I use deRegUserTriggers("analogArtist-schematic" ...) and in that callback I can use hiGetCurrentWindow()->sevSesion->window to get the ADE-L window and instal a custom menu there.

Now I have ViVA.  I can't seem to figure out how to register any sort of trigger that would give me the opportunity to install a menu in ViVA graph windows.  Any suggestions?

Thanks

    Thanks.  Not sure how I failed to find that with searches. For anyone else who may come across this, it appears that awvGetHiWindow() used in that solution probably appeared in IC618.  I see it documented in the IC618 manuals but not IC617.  awvInitWindowFunctionAdd() was the key function I wasn't finding that lets me trigger some code when the window is created.
