how to turn on direct text editing mode etc

Hi Guys,

I had two question about the setting for schematic editor:

1) I would like to turn on direct text editing mode by default, what should be the scripts to add into .cdsinit?

2) How can I turn on the function: selection of device/object immediately after I press the command, such as copy/move etc, with the mouse hover on top of the object/device?

My cadence version is IC6.1.6-64b.500.11.EHF1535.

Thanks,

Billy

    To answer your questions:

    1. I'm not sure what you mean. You can direct edit the text either by hitting the T bindkey or double clicking the left mouse button over the text - no need to "turn it on by default".
    2. Do you mean infix? If so, it's:
      envSetVal("ui" "infix" 'boolean t)

    Regards,

    Andrew.
