Version Number Added to Window Banner

I would like to see the version number surfaced on the banner of each JMP window, right after the currently displayed Product

i.e.

JMP Home Window - JMP Pro 13.2.1

Big Class - JMP Pro 14.0.0

Big Class - Bivariate of weight by height - JMP Pro 12.2.0

@hogi @nathan-clark The add-in is now available ( Identify different JMP versions )

This is probably what you meant @nathan-clark by "hacks with shortcuts"? but it was (very exciting) news to me when I got this tip from JMP support, for windows only: 

 

right click on the application name:

Click on Properties:

update Target Location:

ahhhh...

And I wonder if you had a similar "hack" that's not about shortcuts? I almost always open from the toolbar but this only works if you do.

great trick

another hack is via the AddIn mentioned in the first post:
the version shows up in the menu:

The target string on my system is displayed as a quoted string.  I tried several quoting options but Windows kept responding with the file location is not valid

@hogi   The AddIn is clever, I did not think of that as a solution. (not that I thought of the "target" one either)

 

@txnelson Bummer, sounds like yours is different somehow but just in case it helps here's a paste-able version of what I used in "Target":

C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Roaming\SAS\JMPPro\Jmp.exe /JMPRUNNER:"18.2 Pro"

I think at first this took me a couple of tries to get right from a picture of it, I think it was not obvious to me there was a space after the path or I may have had a slash going the wrong way or something.  But I just redid it on a new Windows 11 machine so I now have it working on both 10 and 11.

I had another thought ... is there a /JMPRUNNER parameter to go in front of the JMP window title?

For instance: /JMPRUNNER:"hello" produces a window list title of "JMP Home Window - JMP [hello]"

But what If I wanted "[Hello] JMP Home Window - JMP"

The reason is for several JMP windows in the task bar, I just see several "JMP Home Window" options.... it would be cool if I could change it to so i'd see "[JMP18] JMP Ho..." or something. I can't find any documentation on what parameters are availble to send to the .exe command.
