getParentWindow in Custom Method

[jlandwerlen]

Is there a way to get the parent window in a custom method, similar to system.gui.getParentWindow(event) without passing in a parameter?

SwingUtils is your friend:

onDoubleClick Extension Function

Java’s SwingUtilities can help. Place the following in a script module, shared.swing, perhaps: from javax.swing import SwingUtilities from com.inductiveautomation.factorypmi.application import FPMIWindow def getParentWindow(component): return SwingUtilities.getAncestorOfClass(FPMIWindow, component) Then in your extension function, you can do: w = shared.swing.getParentWindow(self) v = w.rootContainer.customProperty
