Property Profiles

---

To avoid manually entering a large amount of textual information each time you create a design intent, frequently-used properties can be grouped to create user defined profiles. A number of sample profiles defined for design intents are supplied in the diPropGroupDefs.il file and are visible from the Create Design Intent Form. If required, this file can be edited by your Virtuoso system administrator to add new profiles or change existing ones to meet the specific requirements of a particular design or team.

You can associate a property with multiple scopes to control which properties are visible for the current profile.

A property profile is a group of property definitions stored in the Design Intent Property Group Definitions file, diPropGroupDefs.il. The master file is located at $CDS/Share/cdssetup/dfII/ci. Each profile comprises a group of frequently used properties, for example, add shield, add guard ring, and so on. Your Virtuoso system administrator sets up the profiles as per your requirements.
