Change default Waveform Editor options

I'm using Intel Quartus 21.1.0 Lite Edition with Questa FSE 2021.2 linux_x86_64.

While trying to make the Simulation Waveform Editor work, I learned that I had to edit the default options of the vsim command within the ModelSim Script.
I need to remove '-novopt' and add '-voptargs=+acc' otherwise I can't get any proper output.

I'd like to know if there is any way to change the default ModelSim Script options so that I don't have to make those edits for each new projects.

Some previous posts suggested to edit the modelsim.ini file, but when I tried it didn't have effect.
It seems that the options get loaded from a pref.tcl file but I couldn't find it.

Hi there,

 

The default options of the vsim command can't be changed. 

 

Thanks,

Hi,

I have the same problem here. We work with 200+ students, all beginners. The University Program WVF-Simulator has already some problems, but the manual setting of the vsim option '-voptargs=+acc'  for each new vector is probably not usable. How can we fix this at the root of the problem? Maybe using a vsim wrapper to correct the options on the fly?
