You could use create_toolbar_button
to make your own, possibly
e.g.
create_toolbar_button -text "Run Floorplan" -script ./scripts/floorplan.tcl
I'm not sure if this pulls in the environment variables properly but I think it should.
@maliberty That only works for one hardcoded case, I would like it to work for all ORFS scripts without configuration.
I don't follow exactly what is requested here. Are you trying to rebuild a flow step externally and reload the result or do some change in a session and see the gui update? The later should happen automatically (we had the recent fix for ppl updating).
An existing session of the openroad gui doesn't allow re-loading currently. That would be a larger request.
OR itself has no idea about ORFS steps so I think a custom button would be right. You can also create custom menus. The fastest solution is to have a button that runs the step, invokes a new gui session on the result and exits the current session.

Then, this feature request is this larger request.

OR knows what script that was run initially.
So this larger request/feature idea is to add a button that:
This would work for several use-cases:
Description
When iterating on a stage in ORFS flow, it would be nice to simply hit "refresh" in the GUI to rebuild the requisite stage.
Current workflow:
rm -f results/asap7/mock-array_Element/base/2_2_floorplan_io.odb && make DESIGN_CONFIG=designs/asap7/mock-array/Element/config.mk results/asap7/mock-array_Element/base/2_2_floorplan_io.odb && make DESIGN_CONFIG=designs/asap7/mock-array/Element/config.mk gui_2_2_floorplan_io.odb
Suggested Solution
Add "Rebuild" button in GUI that I can hit when having updated IO pin constraints.
I don't have the exact mechanics of this feature clear to me yet.
