listing of default bindkeys for any generic cadence virtuoso installation

malcolm70

Hi Cadence - where can I find a listing of the default bindkeys which would be loaded into a user environment under any generic cadence installation

for virtuoso versions after say 18 ? ( stuff loaded before a IT / cad redefine of keys to local environments )

I'm looking specifically for the bindkey strings for what I have known as Shift<Key>F and Ctrl<Key>F  which both seem to function as the display heirarchy

levels keys, one being display start level 0 to stop level 0 and the other start level 0 to stop level ( usually ) 31.

what are the function call defaults usually assigned to those 2 keys ?

thanks!

Malcolm

  • Hi Malcolm,

    In my editor I see those bindkeys as the following SKILL definitions:

    Shift-F => hiGetCurrentWindow()->stopLevel = dbGetMaxHierDepth()-1

    Ctrl-F => leSetStopLevelToEditLevel(hiGetCurrentWindow())

     

    You may also like to use the + / - keys:

    leIncrementStopLevelByOne(hiGetCurrentWindow())

    leDecrementStopLevelByOne(hiGetCurrentWindow())

    You should be able to find these definitions in the file: `cds_root virtuoso`/tools/dfII/samples/local//leBindKeys.il

    Best regards,

    Lawrence.

    Actually, Lawrence (warning, Andrew being pedantic), those are the sample bind keys and not actually what is loaded by default.

    The default would be those found in <ICinstDir>/share//cdssetup/dfII/bindkeys/ - for example Layout.il in that directory.

    Note that if you have a .cadence/dfII/bindkeys dir in any of your "setup.loc" locations then those will be used instead - you can check that in the CIW by typing:

    ddGetStartup(".cadence/dfII/bindkeys/Layout.il")

    In general the content is the same (hence my comment being pedantic), but there's alway a chance they might have deviated.
