Example


In the following example, we create three iPlot iTools and display the ID for each one. At the end, we set the first iTool created as the current iTool.

IPLOT, RANDOMU(seed, 30), IDENTIFIER = iToolID1, $        
   COLOR = [0, 0, 255]        
currentTool = IGETCURRENT()        
PRINT, 'The current tool is ', currentTool        
 
IPLOT, RANDOMU(seed, 30), IDENTIFIER = iToolID2, $        
   COLOR = [0, 255, 0]        
currentTool = IGETCURRENT()        
PRINT, 'The current tool is ', currentTool        
 
IPLOT, RANDOMU(seed, 30), IDENTIFIER = iToolID3, $        
   COLOR = [255, 0, 0]        
currentTool = IGETCURRENT()        
PRINT, 'The current tool is ', currentTool        
ISETCURRENT, iToolID1currentTool = IGETCURRENT()        
PRINT, 'The current tool is ', currentTool        
PRINT, 'The first tool is ', iToolID1
