Create New Notebook With Options

This bypasses the New:Notebook menu to give a larger set of selection options up front. The intent is to provide a way to set such things as the Notebook NAME and KILL parameters WHILE SETTING UP THE NOTEBOOK rather than AFTER the fact.



Function IgorMenuHook(isSel, menuStr, itemStr, itemNo, topWindowName, wt)
	Variable isSel, itemNo, wt
	String menuStr, itemStr, topWindowName

	Variable handled= 0
	switch(isSel)
		case 0:
			break
		case 1:
			if ( (cmpstr(menuStr,"New") == 0) && (cmpstr(itemStr,"Notebook") == 0) )
				Execute/P/Q/Z "IMH_CreateNewNotebook()"
				handled= 1
			endif
			break
	endswitch
	return handled
End

Function IMH_CreateNewNotebook()

	string ttxt="", ntxt
	variable TtN=2, format=2, kill=1
	prompt ttxt "Title:"
	prompt TtN "Derive Name from Title?", popup "No;Yes;"
	prompt format "Format", popup "UnFormatted;Formatted;"
	prompt kill "Kill As", popup "Normal;Silent;NO KILL;Hide Only;"
	DoPrompt "Create New Notebook", ttxt,TtN, format, kill
	if (V_flag)
		return -1
	endif
	
	format+=-1
	TtN+=-1
	kill+=-1
	if (TtN)
		ntxt = CleanUpName(ttxt,0)
	else
		ntxt = "Notebook"+CleanUpName(time(),0)
	endif
	NewNotebook/F=(format)/N=$ntxt/K=(kill) as ttxt
	return 0
end
