Uncheck update instances in rename cell dialog

wcheong

Is there a way to uncheck the Update Instances box in Rename Cell dialog by default (eg. in .cdsinit)?

  • Andrew Beckett

    You can put the following entry in your ~/.cdsenv file:

    cdsLibManager.rename updateOn boolean nil

    Note that putting an equivalent envSetVal call in your .cdsinit won't help, because the library manager is a separate process that doesn't read the .cdsinit. So this ideally needs to be in a .cdsenv file which by default looks in your home directory (not working dir). However, it's possible by various methods (either the $CDS_LOAD_ENV Unix env var or using the csfLookupConfig file mechanism) to look for it elsewhere. You could also put:

    envSetVal("cdsLibManager.rename" "updateOn" 'boolean nil)

    into a cdsLibMgr.il file which is found via the Cadence Search File (setup.loc) mechanism - so probably in your home or working dir.

    Regards,

    Andrew.

    I put the entry into cdsLibMgr.il in my working dir. It works. Thank you very much!
