Reference a file in the toolbar file

psill

 Is it possible to reference a file in the .toolbar file rather than defining all the toolbar items in one file?

 WORK_DIRECTORY/.cadence/dfII/toolbars/byApplication/*.toolbars

 

Thanks

    You can inherit any toolbars you like - not just those defined by Cadence. For example, I had two like this:

     ::::::::::::::   
    Virtuoso_XL.toolbars
    ::::::::::::::      
    (                   

            (
                    nil
                    inheritToolbarsFrom "custom"
            )                                   


    )
    ::::::::::::::
    custom.toolbars
    ::::::::::::::
    (              

            (
