1. I want to change the first characters of references that are automatically added.
$ZDSROOT/etc/CompKind (function type definition file)
To change the first letter of the reference to be automatically added, edit the setting of reference header of "ComponentKind3".
2. I want to add or change property items in which symbols and pins can be defined.
3. I want to change the system-reserved properties.
Accordingly, with a few exceptions, the reserved properties for the system cannot be changed.
As exceptions, the property display strings and the viewer color numbers can be changed. (The display strings are those in the third field that are enclosed with quotation marks. The viewer color numbers are the numerals in the last field.) Note that user-defined properties are available. The user can add these or change them freely as desired.
4. I want to know which resource files are referenced when placing parts in the schematic. I also want to know what these files are used for.
Furthermore, settings in the Parts Rule Based Search dialog
box that is brought up when selecting a part from the searched parts by a Parts Rule Based Search are loaded from
$ZDSROOT/info/pruledb.rsc (Parts Search Rule file).
The pruledb.rsc can be divided into files that are referenced
for each schematic. In this case, they are set in rcpath of pruledb.rsc to refer (resource path file).
Using under Rev.5.0 or earlier open PropSpec with a text editor and confirm.
When all preparations above are done, you are ready to place parts in schematics.
Shown below is the procedure for placing parts in schematics.
Specify the search keyword.
Set "IC"
for the part property "Partskind" then execute the search. |
![]() |
5. I want to restore data from log files.
1. Copy the log file (e.g., lga10659) to a macro file (any file name is OK provided that the extension is ".mac"; for example, tmp.mac).
4. Edit the macro file. Delete unnecessary contents. #
# This command log file was written by ZUken

(By searching for the character string "save" you can find the last line where the save command was executed.))
5. Execute the macro file you edited to restore data.
Click [Save/Execute] in the Edit/Execute Macro dialog box.
An operation log is executed for the schematic sheet that is open.
6. I wish to edit the function type definition file (CompKind).
