permanent change of the simulation results directory

Hello,

In ADE L environment we are given the ability to set the directory (via the option Simulator/Directory/Host) that the simulations' results are stored in.I noticed that i must do the same procedure everytime i open ADE L,even if i load a saved simulations' state.Is there any way to make a permanent set up for desired location of the simulations' results directory?For example : by default it has ~/simulations and i want it to be /lalala/results.

Thanks in advance for any helpful advice.

Regards,

Jimito13

    Hi Jimito13

    You can customize the simulation directory by adding the following line to .cdsinit file:
    envSetVal("asimenv.startup" "projectDir" 'string "/abc/simulation")

    Here are some other useful options:

    envSetVal("asimenv.plotting" "artistPlottingMode" 'string "Append")
    envSetVal("asimenv" "saveDir" 'string "./.artist_states")
    envSetVal("spectre.outputs" "save" 'string "all")
    envSetVal("spectre.outputs" "currents" 'string "all")
    envSetVal("spectre.outputs" "pwr" 'string "all")

    Best regards
    Quek

    Another solution is create a link simulation folder in your directory simulation --> lalala/results.
