Merge Shapes -- cycle through 'Scope' options

iDoLayout

I want to assign a bindkey to cycle through the 'Merge Shapes' options.  In the documentation I only see a way to toggle 'Merge Shapes' on and off with 'mergeEnable' -- can't see a way to access the 'Scope' options of 'Pcells, Except current, All'.

I'd like to write a procedure to switch through 'mergeEnable nil' -> 'mergeEnable t w/ Pcells scope' -> 'mergeEnable t w/ Except current scope' -> 'mergeEnable t w/ All scope' -> back to 'mergeEnable nil'

Thanks.

  • I just threw together a function which cycles through the options. Hopefully you can see how this works:

    procedure(CCFcycleMergeShapes(@optional (win hiGetCurrentWindow()))
  letseq((
    (mergeEnable win->mergeEnable)
    (mergeScope mergeEnable && win->mergeScope)
    )
    ;--------------------------------------------------------------------
    ; Using a list of mergeEnable and mergeScope settings, find the
    ; matching entry in the sequence and then use the next entry
    ; to update the window properties
    ;--------------------------------------------------------------------
    destructuringBind(
      (@optional nextEnable nextScope)
      cadr(member(
        list(mergeEnable mergeScope)
        list(list(nil nil) list(t "pcells") list(t "except current")
          list(t "all") list(nil nil))))
      win->mergeEnable=nextEnable
      win->mergeScope=nextScope
      ;------------------------------------------------------------------
      ; Return the new values in case it's useful!
      ;------------------------------------------------------------------
      list(nextEnable nextScope)
    )
  )
)
