Virtuoso Studio Design Environment Customization
You can use the Options menu in your Command Interpreter Window (CIW) to customize your Virtuoso Studio Design Environment.
You can customize specific application setup information by referring to the specific application documentation. Customization updates made via the CIW are common to multiple users or global to an entire site.
Additionally, you can customize your design environment such that your settings are loaded for all subsequent sessions by editing various dot files in your home directory such as .cshrc, .cdsinit, and .Xinitrc. Your settings remain in effect until you edit the dot files again. For more information, see Environment Settings in Virtuoso.
The .cshrc and .Xinitrc files are system specific files with content both relevant and irrelevant to Cadence and Virtuoso applications. The .cdsinit file applies solely to Cadence and Virtuoso software.
