Modification of the Arnold render view.

Hello there,

I used to customize the old renderView in Maya, with button shortcuts like so:

I am trying to find a way to do the same in the Arnold render view, just to inject a few buttons. Am I right in assuming that the window contents are invisible to Maya as generated in the mtoa plugin ?  I can access the window, but nothing within it. Is there any way to access the layouts so I can add some control UI ? 

I suppose I could build a small UI and stick it to the window... 

 

 

 

 

//only window or workspaceControl exposure?
window -e - h 450 ArnoldRenderView;  

//shows nothing... 
workspaceControl  -q -uiScript ArnoldRenderView;

Thank you!

I was able to solve it by attaching a UI to the Arnold Renderview. Probably better as no dependancies. Uses an idle event scriptJob but it's light and is more beneficial than worrying about the amount of procedure calls. 
So I can make shortcuts to my most used workflows.
