Problems with: drLoadDrf("~/GHzT/display.drf" nil)

Hi,

I want to automatically load my display.drf file. I added the line

drLoadDrf("~/GHzT/display.drf" nil)

in my .cdsinit but it has no effect. If I execute this command in the CIW directly after starting virtuoso and after that I open a layout, my display.drf is also not loaded. But if I open the layout before I execute this command, the display.drf loads correctly and the layers appears as I want to.

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thank you!

Sascha

PS: Sorry for my bad english!

    Perfect, it works! I tried yesterday

    deRegUserTriggers("maskLayout" 'DisplayDrfLoad)
    procedure(DisplayDrfLoad(l)
    drLoadDrf("./display.drf")
    )

    and it works too, but I think your solution is smarter.

    Thank you!

    The display file must be in the workspace directory? Is it steal working for other directories?
