Problem Title:
V1.5, V1.4: COREGEN VIEWLOGIC: PINORDER property/attribute is visible
onViewlogic symbols generated by COREGen



Problem Description:
Keywords: viewlogic, pinorder, symbol, attribute

Urgency: standard

General Description:
The PINORDER property is visible on Viewlogic symbols
generated by Coregen.  This attribute designates the order
in which symbol pins should be displayed on the schematic
symbol, and it is usually invisible.

The problem is seen on Windows NT platforms with symbols
generated with VHDL2SYM from Workview Office v7.4.  It does
not appear to be a problem on Powerview on Solaris.


Solution 1:

The workaround is to edit the symbol and manually change the
"Visible" property to "Invisible".

The problem is mainly cosmetic and does not affect the
processing of the design.
