GR-2602 - Setting GUI preferencesIntroductionThe ModelSim GUI is programmed using Tcl/Tk. It is highly customizable. You cancontrol everything from window size, position, and color to the text of window prompts,default output filenames, and so forth. You can even add buttons and menus that runuser-programmable Tcl code.Most user GUI preferences are stored as Tcl variables in the .modelsim file on Unix/Linuxplatforms or the Registry on Windows platforms. The variable values save automaticallywhen you exit ModelSim. Some of the variables are modified by actions you take withmenus or windows (e.g., resizing a window changes its geometry variable). Or, you can editthe variables directly either from the ModelSim > prompt or the Edit Preferences dialog.ModelSim SE GUI Reference
