I can't get this code to grey out googletool when I switch to layout view.
I have watched the video copied the example code in the help files and read about it. I must be missing something.
I also tried to with print "Change" after def activeViewChanged(self): but nothing appeared in the python prompt in Arcgis when i switched from data view to layout view.
My googletool wont work in data view so I wanted to disable it.
Any thoughts?

def activeViewChanged(self):
mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument('current')

# tool1 is the tool ID (without the namespace prefix)
if active_view == 'PAGE_LAYOUT':
googletool.enabled = False
else:
googletool.enabled = True
arcpy.RefreshActiveView()
