[ModelSim] Where to see a log of the commands

Hi All,

Where can I see a log of all the commands, which ran in ModelSim ever by manual entering/typing in the Transcript window or by using ModelSim buttons?

Thank you!

    I meant "buttons" :-) So, do you have an answer? Where is a log file of ModelSim/Questa located? What's the log name?

    yes the filename is "transcript" and should be either in modelsim directory or as decided by modelsim.ini

    for example you may have the following ini command:

    ; File for saving command transcript

    TranscriptFile = transcript

    How can I change a location of the Transcript File?

    Currently it's located and updated here: "C:\questasim64_10.4c\examples\transcript"

    But, the project itself is located here: "D:/units/hp/led/msim/project"

    So how to set so all the Modelsim files will be located/updated in the project directory?

    Is there any response? Should the transcript file be in the project directory? How to change its location?
