set_gview annoyance

[bryan314]

I'm trying to fix a minor annoyance but I'm not having much luck. I'm using set_gview to set the gview to a view number. That works fine, but the text in the graphics view says "(not saved)" and the Previous Views menu item doesn't work.

 

The steps I'm using is feeding find_view_m() a new matrix to find or create a new view and then using that new view number in set_gview().

 

Anybody got any ideas on how to make everything kosher?

 

I've tried using named_view_manager. It works for setting t/c plane but not gviews.

Bryan,

 

Try this...

 

extern DllImpExp void gview_proc(char *gvo);

 

gview_proc('T'); // set GView to 'Top'

gview_proc('I'); // set GView to 'Isometric'

gview_proc('7'); // set GView to view #7

gview_proc('C'); // set GView to = CPlane

 

// ('T' = top, 'F' = Front, 'S' = right Side

// 't' = bottom, 'f' = back, 's' = left Side)

I'm getting the same Gview:Not saved error and I have no idea how it came about. I'm new to MC and had drawn a 2D part. The backplot worked well but when I went to verify, the error appeared. How can I fix this?
