So I have to change them to the location I prefer manually everytime. Is there anyway I can change the default value. Thanks.

envSetVal( "spectre.envOpts" "modelFiles" 'string "
/path/mymodels1.scs;section
/path/mymodels2.scs;section")

section is nom, typ etc. depending on how your .scs files are coded.

anyway you save this in a state, and load it quite easily.
you should look at your .cdsinit files to learn how your environment defaults are set for you, then you can easily edit them to suit your own needs. also using cdsFinder will help

For more detailed explanation have a look at Cadence Application Infrastructure User Guide, Chapter 12, Miscellaneous Infrastructure Technologies. Bernd
