When wr iting a Scheme e xtension func tion f or ANSY S Fluen t, it is of ten c onvenien t to be able t o include
menu c ommands in the func tion. This c an b e done with ti-menu-load-string . For e xample , to
open gr aphics windo w 2, use
(ti-menu-load-string "di ow 2")
A Scheme lo op tha t will op en windo ws 1 and 2 and displa y the fr ont view of the mesh in windo w 1
and the back view in windo w 2 is giv en b y
(for-each
(lambda (window view)
(ti-menu-load-string (format #f "di ow ~a gr view rv ~a"

’(1 2)
’(front back))
This lo op mak es use of the format func tion t o constr uct the str ing used b y menu-load-string .
This simple lo op c ould also b e wr itten without using menu c ommands a t all, but y ou need t o know
the Scheme func tions tha t get e xecut ed b y the menu c ommands t o do it:
(for-each
(lambda (window view)
(cx-open-window window)

(cx-restore-view view))
’(1 2) ’(front back))
String input c an also pr ovide an easy w ay to cr eate aliases within ANSY S Fluen t. For e xample , to cr eate
an alias tha t will displa y the mesh, you c ould t ype the f ollowing:
(alias ’dg (lambda () (ti-menu-load-string "/di gr")))
Then an y time y ou en ter dg from an ywher e in the menu hier archy, the mesh will b e dr awn in the ac tive

Imp ortant
ti-menu-load-string evalua tes the str ing ar gumen t in the t op le vel menu . It ignor es
any menu y ou ma y be in when y ou in voke ti-menu-load-string .
As a r esult , the c ommand
