When running a plugin, how can I force the plugin to always start in Icons View, or for that matter, lock it, like we can the "Sort by" option?
Help will be appreciated...

you shouldn't be doing such things. set the content type and let the skin choose the suitable view modes

The problem is that you don't know that the view you are wanting to force has been implemented using actual icons or something else. The skin is free to supply whatever views it likes.
As spiff says, the only thing you can do is specify a content type at this point.

Thanks guys for your feedback. I will experiment with content type and see which one is better for the plugin.
