2.1.2. User interface for Category "Configuration files"

Many standard functions, such as for example adjusting a variable or setting a numerical value, can be best carried out under the Category CAD integration.

In the case of complex changes it is wise to edit directly in the configuration file.

However therefor detailed knowledge of Syntax is necessary. Changes should only be made by experienced users or consultants here.[33]

During interpretation of settings, the CAD specific (ifsolidworks.cfg, ifacad.cfg, etc.) and the general configuration file (ifacecommon.cfg) are used.

The figure shows the Category "Configuration files" using to the selection "$CADENAS_SETUP -> if<cadname>.cfg"

[33] The CAD and PDM interfaces of PARTsolutions exhibit a high flexibility due to the scripting option. The programming language used here is Visual Basic. Through a CADENAS own script interpreter the scripts work both under Windows as well as under Unix.
