SkillCode for creating new window

Hi all,
I need to create a new window for stretch, Scale and so on.

I mean window in the sense it should pop up if I press required key and it should have options regarding length and direction.

So how can i write a skill code which performs the above operation and how to create a window using skill code?

Hi,

Using hiCreateAppForm and define all the values for that function a popup window can be created...
Next a procedure for stretch command needs to be defined..

Thanks and Regards,
Nanda.

A practical solution:

Copy the old view to a new one with a different view name. AFAIR the new one will be opened directly. Then look for the corresponding SkillCode in your CDS.log file. You can assign this SkillCode to a bindkey.

Hi Prashanthanilm,

After defining your problem we can google out and get some solutions from google.
Use those example scripts and modify according to your requirement.
To create a window given one example below.
form = hiCreateAppForm(
?name 'CCSmetStretchForm
?formTitle "Realtive Stretch"
?formType 'options
?buttonLayout 'ApplyHideCancel
?fields list( list(xspace 0:0 100:30 50)
list(yspace 120:0 100:30 70)
);list
); hiCreateAppForm
); if the technology information can be obtained
); if a current cellview exists
); let
); procedure CCScreateMetStretchForm

If you are using Cadence Virtuoso in ICFB window we have Tools-->SKill Development-->Finder, which would explain the functions you use.
