registering new cell view type -default text viewName

NickJ

I've sucessfully registered an new type of cell, so I can create/open that type from within library manager.

I want the 'New File' dialog that lib manager to have default values entered for the view name, the name of the created cell is important in our application. Once I type it in in a new session it seem to remember the entry for the rest of that session, but I'd like there to be a default that it starts with. Is there a way to do this?

Cheers

    You can do this with:

    envSetVal("graphic" "viewNameToTypeList" 'string "defaultViewName yourViewType")

    Just illustrating it with the built-in viewTypes: envSetVal("graphic" "viewNameToTypeList" 'string "mysymbol symbol,myschem schematic")

    Some details can be found in this article: How to seed 'view Name' based on selected 'Tool/Type'
