Changing Banner Menus for a Particular Simulator

You can also customize the banner menus (in the Simulation window) for a particular simulator by modifying the <simulator>.menus file.Look for the file in the following location.

<install_dir>/tools/dfII/etc/tools/menus/<simulator>.menus

If the file you need is here, make a copy of the file and make any modifications you want. If the file you need is not here, you can use the Spectre file (or another simulator file) as an example. Rename this file for your simulator and make any changes you want. (Do not include the angle brackets (<>) in the file name.)

Place a copy of the file in the following location.

<install_dir>/tools/dfII/local/menus/<simulator>.menus

This location is for site customization. You can also put menus/<simulator>.menus in

• The work area (if there is any) or the current working directory
• The project area (if TDM is in use)
• Your home directory

Add the definition for the appropriate callback function and associated code to your appropriate SKILL files.

You can also add menus by using the SKILL hi calls.
