l_contextSpecificationCells
)

Value Returned

t	A list of contexts was defined for slotting.

Examples

Adding the following example in the .cdsinit file defines a list of contexts for slotting. The two environment variables that let you use these defined contexts are useOneSlotSpecCell and slottingContext.

sltSetContextSpecificationCells( '(("context1" "DESIGN/specCell1/layout") ("context2" "DESIGN/specCell2/layout")) ) 

After specifying the two environment variables, when you open the Metal Density Options form, the slotting parameters are taken from the specification cell DESIGN/specCell2/layout.

envSetVal("slt" "useOneSlotSpecCell" 'boolean nil) 

envSetVal("slt" "slottingContext" 'string "context2")
