How to read the active pages of all other views (i.e. windows) and set the last occurrence on the active view using IronPython script in Spotfire®.

Introduction

Script that allows to read the active pages of all other views (i.e. windows) and set the last occurrence on the active view (the window from where the python script was triggered).

DocumentView.ForEach will iterate over all existing views and call DocumentView.BeginUse for each view. In the callback action the view is available via the DocumentView.Current property. This is the only way to get all document views.

	if DocumentView.Current <> currentView:
		page = Document.ActivePageReference

DocumentView.ForEach(Document, readOtherView)

if page <> None:
	Document.ActivePageReference = page
