Options forms default display

Hello,

In Cadence, the F3 key is used to display the option forms.

In the setting I have, when I am in Virtuoso Layout, the Option forms
appear by default when I select a command (Like "create rectangle" or
"rotate").

Is there a way to make Virtuoso not display the option form of a
command by default?

The way I use Cadence I fond this behaviour annoying and I would like
to access the options form only when I need it by typing F3.

Regards,

 

Hi Stéfan,
From the main window(CIW) select
Options->User Preferences
You will get a form popped up. There uncheck the button named "Options
displayed when commands start".
Press OK.
and Enjoy.

regards,
Suresh

 

Hi Stéfan,

Alternatively, this is specified as follows in the .cdsenv

ui showOptionForms boolean nil

or, from a SKILL file such as .cdsinit

envSetVal( "ui" "showOptionsForms" 'boolean nil )

cheers,

stéphane
