that you can edit Library paths through cds.lib ?

Did you know ...

Library Manager shows you the list of available libraries that has valid schematics and cell views. You can change the library path as shown.

You can change the path of a library through cds.lib .  There’s a file called cds.lib which lies in the folder from where you start ICFB. So what the tool does is, it will check for cds.lib within the current working directory and update the paths in the Library Manager. If you start ICFB from some other folder that does not have any cds.libs in it, then you’ll probably get an empty library. So, to change the path, open the current working directory through the terminal and edit the cds.lib file.


If you want to hide a particular library, you can comment out the entire line by putting a # prefix like below :

#DEFINE <library_name> <path>

Now, you can hide all those libraries that you have used in your previous semesters and keep your Library Manager clean.
