Changing default settings of Virtuoso Layout XL

Clidre

Hello,

I would like to change some default settings of Virtuoso Layout XL. Basically, I would like:

- Grid controls:  Minor Spacing=0.1, Major Spacing=0.5,  XSnap Spacing=0.01, YSnap Spacing=0.01 

- Ruler: snap target=none, background color=black, use the same color for all rules

Can you please tell me where I can find the commands I need? Can I write them in my .cdsinit file?

Thank you very much!
