Buttons at the Bottom of the Form

• OK - Closes the Preferences form, saving any changes you have made.
• Cancel - Closes the Preferences form without saving any changes.
• Defaults - Loads the default form setting.
• Apply - Applies any preference changes that you have made. This does not close the form.
• Save to - Saves the changes you have made to a preset file. You can use that preset whenever you want to use the settings set in the file. Clicking the button opens the Save Pegasus Interactive Preferences form:
  
  
  • File Name: Enter the file name for the Pegasus Interactive Run Options form settings you have made.
  • Directory: Select the location where you want to save the file. The Directory drop-down list allows you to set the directory path that preset is going to save to. By default the Directory field allows you to select two locations: the local .cadence/pegasus/$USER directory and .cadence/pegasus/$USER at the $HOME directory. However, its drop-down items can be expanded using CDS_WORKAREA environment variable.
  • Set as default: Select this check box to save the settings as default.
  • Click Save to save the settings.
• Load From - Loads the form settings from an already saved preset file. Clicking Load Form opens the Load Pegasus Interactive Preferences form:
  
  
  The form lists presets saved by user in different locations. These locations and search order are defined by setup.loc file, which
  Cadence provides in $PEGASUS_INSTAL_DIR/share/cdssetup/setup.loc. Default setup.loc file defines search order as follows:
  . : cwd should always be searched first.
  $CDS_WORKAREA: User workarea if defined.
  $CDS_SEARCHDIR: This is set by various tools during tool startup.
  $HOME
  $CDS_PROJECT: Project storage area, ignored if not defined.
  $CDS_SITE : Site Setup Info - default is $CDS_INST_DIR/share/local.
  $(compute:THIS_TOOL_INST_ROOT)/share: Cadence Default Setup Info.
• Help - Brings up context-sensitive help.
