Centralised Configuration (What's New in 2025.1)

Indicates a feature suggested and voted up by users on the Flame Feedback portal.

Configuration Files

You can reroute where the Colour Coding, Channels Rules, and Custom Resolutions configuration files are read from.

In the configuration_files section, only the listed paths can be modified; no new items can be added.

For example, the colour coding options can be set using the content of the colour_coding.cfg file located in a central location by specifying a different path than /opt/Autodesk/cfg/colour_coding.cfg.

Using the Same File for all Application Versions

There are two methods for using a single sysconfig.cfg file for every version of the application on a workstation. In both cases, new features added to the sysconfig.cfg file in future versions will have to be manually added to the centralised sysconfig.cfg file as it won't be automatically updated by a new application version installation. These methods are:

  • Save a sysconfig.cfg file directly in the /opt/autodesk/cfg directory. This file takes precedence over the file located in the /opt/Autodesk/cfg/.<version> directory.
  • Set the DL_SYSCONFIG_FILE environment variable to a centralised sysconfig.cfg file path.
