Displaying Multiple Library Definitions File

To display another cds.lib file in the library path editor window,

  1. Choose File – Open.
    The cds.lib files in your working directory are displayed. These are the default selections. To look in another directory for a different cds.lib, click the Browse button.
    The Select cds.lib File To Open form is displayed.
  2. In the form, specify the library definitions file that you want to include by selecting it or by typing its path in the File name field or by a combination of the two.
    You can use the Files of type field to filter files—you can choose to display only library definition files in the selected directory or all files.
  3. Click Open.
    The file you choose appears in the Library Path Editor window. This file is used in your design session.
    If you do not have permission to write to the library definitions file, a message appears, indicating that the file you specified is in read-only mode and you cannot make any changes to it.
