Hello,
I know you can't instantiate an interface in Python. But is there a possilibity of opening the CAG window with the "Show()" method (from the name ICompoundAtAGlance)?
I'm not sure, how I can call a interface...
I tried this one:
class CAG(ICompoundsAtAGlance):
def __init__(self):
def Show(self):
pass
NewCAG = CAG()
NewCAG.Show()
But if I run my code then nothing happens.
Hello Hoernchen117 ,
If this is related to your previous post -

You mention that you only have the SDK loaded and not quant. This is why your code isn't working. Your script must be run from within quant to work. You can execute it from a command line or from the UI Menu.
I would suggest first making certain you can launch the Quant debugger as outlined in the Scripting Developer's Guide. This will be a good test of your Python setup. From there you can try some of the other examples in the developer's guide. There is also a presentation and a few more examples available on the Quant installation media in this folder -

Hello Hoernchen117 ,
There are not many examples in the API section of the manual. You can search for 'ironpython' to see what is available. There is an example in the ICalCurvePane Interface section that shows how to use these calls.
Though trying to access UIState.CompoundsAtAGlance gives an error that UIState has no such property.
Going to the UIState section of the manual shows that the property is actually called CompoudsAtAGlanceView.
From this it is possible with the following code to open the CAG view.
import SystemUIState.CompoundsAtAGlanceView.Show()
Note that a batch must be open for this to work. You will need to do all of your own error checking in your script. There are examples of checking the batch and UI state in the developers guide and in the presentations on the installation media.
