Is there anything like custom IC design skill function "hiGetWindows"???

In Allegro skill, I want to get a list of all open subwindows/forms? Is there a way to do this? Specifically, I'm trying to ascertain if the constraint manager is open.

 

thanks

    I'm not sure whether there are other, better methods but this is a work-around.

    1/ Record a script that includes running up your form.

    2/ Open the script and look for the appropriate setwindow command - in your case "setwindow cmgr"

    3/ Use axlUIWExposeByName("cmgr") to test for window presence - and to expose it.

     Cheers, Dave
