Hi list,

When creating a new Cell View with Library Manager,
The form "Create new file" opens.
How is it possible to set a default for field "View Name" ?
(For example how to define a default view named "text" for an
on-site tool named "Text-Editor")
I think it's possible to do as "Composer-Schematic"tool defaultly
filled "View Name" with "schematic".

Thanks.

Hi Roger,

I think Bernd misunderstood what you're trying to do.

envSetVal("graphic" "viewNameToTypeList" 'string "fred maskLayout,jim
schematic,albert text")

This allows you to specify (as the name suggests) the view name to view
type mapping.

So if you select "Text Editor" as the tool (which corresponds to a
viewType of "text" in the
registry), it will give a default view name of albert. Same idea for
layout and schematic views.

The format is a comma separated list of viewname/viewType pairs - each
pair is space
separated.

Regards,

Andrew.
