Circuit Studio in Wine (Linux)

Hey Everyone,

This thread is quite a few years old and some of the links are stale. Anyone have any good instructions on how to get CircuitStudio to run under Linux Mint? I only have a few programs I use on Windows and it's beginning to irritate me so if I can move over CircuitStudio and get it to work properly, that'd be great.

Much appreciated!

I'm not an active CS user these days, I gravitated to AD...which I would also like to get running on WINE.
Have you tried installing and running CS in WINE?
What's the showstopping issue?

I tried looking for
https://circuitmaker.com/blog/3-steps-for-installing-circuitmaker-on-linux
in the wayback machine...it's says 9 captures but none load for me

Alternatively, this link might give a starting point (it's for CM rather than CS):

# go to the "Libraries" tab, find "msado15", click "Add", make sure it's marked as "native, builtin"
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-circuitmaker wine ~/.wine-circuitmaker/drive_c/Program\ Files/Altium/CM/DXP.EXE


tested on NixOS 20.09.2654.646f528cce6
vd=1920x1080 works around the orange rectangle masking the login dialog box during installation
the msado15 override works around the access violation in IntegratedLibrary.DLL during Circuitmaker startup

This makes Circuitmaker work as intended without requiring Windoze (it seems full Altium Designer won't run at all in Wine), and it can open schematic files faster and with fewer limitations than the Altium online viewer.
