+3Hi All
I thought this would work. Maybe, i am doing something wrong:
Displaying $appltitle, set in the asn, does not appear to work when running an frm from the ide compile/test.
Thanks

Are you referring to the IDE logical IDETITLE? If so then this will only work within the IDE (application). Since the logical is assigned to $appltitle in ProcScript (of the IDE) this will not work with the IDE test mode (ide.exe /tst). But you could easily set the logical with $appltitle in your own code.
I hope this helps.

Yep, thanks Daniel.... I was a bit surprised that all..... A more realistic example is if you use additional menus that call frms... The title is lost.

Sorry, I do not really understand what you mean. What exactly are you doing and what exactly is lost? Are we still talking about the logical IDETITLE?

Yes the IDETITLE... So, for example, if I open the ide, i see the app title...
I then open an frm as a menu plug-in; for example, "system info" in the demo.
The system info screen will show, but without the apptitle.

Why do you expect that a plugin-in component would use the value of IDETITLE as form title? The apptitle is for the application shell and not a form.
And I have just double checked and IDETITLE is actually used as form title for the main IDE component. The IDE is a Single Document Interface (SDI) application and not a Multiple Document Interface (MDI) application like (e.g.) the IDF of Uniface 9. You could say that $apptitle is not used by the IDE.

My comments are confusing $appltitle and IDETITLE....
It is IDETITLE that I mean... which is the title displayed in the IDE.
As the Menu plugin is opened within the IDE and used as an extension of the ide, I had expected that the IDETITLE would be accessible. The purpose was to access which uniface environment I am using withing a Menu plugin...
I guess I imagined that $appltitle would contain this. But it seems $appltitle gets a default value of "Uniface 10 Development Environment" when used in the ide.
As an alternative, I have found that I can use ldir() to access which uniface environment I am in.
