Get size of unopened windows

[nminchin]

I’m looking to get a list of all of the Windows that we have in our SCADA system, and categorise them by main/popup/docked by pulling the info from their config using their size, layer, and docking settings.
I am getting the full list of windows using system.gui.getWindowNames(), but I don’t know where to go to from here to pull out their properties?

I’ve tried using:

from com.inductiveautomation.factorypmi.application import FPMIWindow
windowPaths = system.gui.getWindowNames()
windows = [FPMIWindow(windowPath) for windowPath in windowPaths]

print windows[0].preferredSize

but all I get are 0’s. I presume it’s because the windows aren’t actually open, so really they don’t have a width… How do I get to the config object instead, so that I can read the config I need?

Hello @nminchin. Did you find a way to achieve that? i am actually also interrested on it.

What i posted here could be repurposed to return "size" instead of text/tooltiptext/title (of only the root then i suppose)

Export all component text used in Ignition

This should work in a button for vision… pro tip dont try to understand this one xD There is a bucnh of things that dont get used or are not needed but… it works xd (again dont do this to often, it may take long xd) from com.inductiveautomation.factorypmi.application.binding.action import ActionAdapter class ProjectResources: def __init__(self): import system from javax.swing import JFrame from java.awt.event import WindowEvent if system.util.getSystemFlags() & system.util.DESI…

for the print i didnt do only the root object yet tho

not all of the code will be needed for this tho, but it gets you started

(seems to need to be version 8.1+)
