ViVA Customization using .cdsinit

hoodskier

Hello,

I'm attempting to modify the default settings in ViVA and some lines do not work as expected.  The commands I'm adding to .cdsinit that don't work (probably user error :D) are:

; Set graph marker font and size
envSetVal("viva.pointMarker" "font" 'string "Fixed [Misc],12,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0")

; Set line thickness to thick
envSetVal("viva.trace" "lineThickness" 'string "thick")

; Set line type to solid
envSetVal("viva.trace" "lineStyle" 'string "solid")

I have changed the default background and foreground colors successfully but the line thickness and line style modifications don't work at all.  I still get the default thickness of fine and default style of dot every time I run a simulation.

Also, I'm not sure exactly what I should modify in the graph marker line, I'm using a vertical data marker and I want the font size of the data to be larger.

    Hi Kevin,

    One other point...I also found that some environmental variable settings are not implemented yet depending on the version of Cadence you are using. Those that were not implemented were commented out in the sample .cdsenv file found in the respective install directory. As an example of its location for one version of the Cadence tools, the sample .cdsenv file is at:

    /tools/cds-6.1.6.7/tools.lnx86/dfII/samples/viva (./tools.lnx86/dfII/samples/viva/.cdsenv)
