Is there a way to activate an event by simply selecting a specific view?

I was curious if there is a way to activate an event by simply selecting a view. We have an Emergency Evacuation view that is only used if a building is evacuated and it would be more convenient to simply select that view and all PTZs go to their Emergency Evac preset. I have the event set up and with an overlay button which works but I would like to eliminate that extra step if possible. Thank you.

It would be possible to make a Smart Client plugin that listens for SelectedViewChangedInditation and in that way discover when the view is chosen.

When the view is detected in that way the trigger the event.

You can see SelectedViewChangedInditation in use if you explore the Message Tester tool plugin sample.
