Problem about Cadence IC5.0 in Redhat8.0

schbindkey.il

Hello,



I install IC5.0 in Redhat8.0 sucessfully.

However, there is something wrong when I open the composer.

The first problem is taht I can't use HOTKEYs in composer.

(For example: f --> Fit; i--> instance ...)

Could someone tell me is it normal or how to setup?



The second problem is there is a warning message when I launch IC5.0.


The warning messge is as following.

Warning: Cannot convert string "-adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal--0-100-75-75-p-0-iso8859-1" to type FontStruct

Thanks for your help!

skillcore.cxt not loaded

For hotkey,you should have .cdsinit file.Maybe you can the solution in cdsdoc.

The warning that you experienced can be ignore.
It is complains the fonts problem.
But still can works well.

at .cdsinit find load("leBindKeys.il") ,
del ";" before it,
use xlsfonts to find fonts can be used,
use man to see how to add fonts.

Bindkey soulation
1. cd to (your install IC50 dir) /tools.lnx86/dfII
2. make dir local
3. copy (your install IC50 dir)/tools.lnx86/dfII/sample/local/cdsinit to (your install IC50 dir)/tools.lnx86/dfII/local/.cdsinit

Thanks for your help

Hello,

The HOTKEY problem is fixed.

But, there is an another problem.
When I instanced a symbol in composer, it failed.
The message is as following.

X Toolkit Warning:
Name: textfield
Class: XmTextField
Character '\151' not supported in font. Discarded.

Do you have set the LANG environment variable? If yes, unsetenv LANG, then try to startup the composer again.

Another BindKey solution
IN CWD directory setup .simrc file and add
load("/../../../SchBindKey.il")

To customize the HOTKEY, you can copy the "schBindKey.il" and "leBindKey.il" files to your CWD or HOME diectory and modify them,
then restart IC\5\0.

SchBindKey.il for composer schematic
lebindKey.il for layout editor
