Working with Templates in Hierarchy Editor

Templates let you build configurations using pre-defined view lists, library lists, and stop lists. The Hierarchy Editor includes templates for some simulators that are compatible with Cadence software. You can also create your own templates.

Templates are located using CSF. The CSF search includes those templates in the installation hierarchy, and also any user-created templates that are found under hierEditor/templates, in directories that have been defined in setup.loc, for example /hierEditor/templates/mytemplate.

If any templates are found in one of these locations, they are displayed in the Name drop-down, without the need to specify a path.

If a template is not found in one of the locations mentioned, you can enter a path in the From File field.
