LSW raise as def in 5.0.32

Discussion in 'Cadence' started by Bernd Fischer, Sep 15, 2003.

  1. Hi,

    I saw a strange behaviour of the LSW in the
    Cadence Design Framework II 5.0.32.
    The LSW raise up per default if I come over it
    with my mouse.
    The window manager defaults are 'mouse over window to be active'
    and 'do not raise active window on top'.

    Why does the LSW behave different form the other windows and
    form the window manger defaults?
    Is there a env var to get the change of LSW behaviour back.

    I'm sure I could dig this somewhere out of the docs,
    but if somebody knows the answer by change I'll will
    be glad.

    Thanks Bernd

    This is a known bug that has to do with the display of the little popups on
    each button. The default for this in the latest release is for these to be
    off and there is a new layout envvar for that called showLPPFullName (set in
    ..cdsenv) whose default will be off. For releases prior to 5.0.33, the
    workaround is as follows:

    I'm using the following in .cdsinit as a workaround:

    leHiOptionLayer()
    lswLayerOptionForm->leLayerShowLPPFullName->value = nil
    hiFormDone(lswLayerOptionForm)
