To access this dialog, right-click on a region in the Regions tab of the Hierarchy window, and choose Properties.
Use this dialog to display the properties assigned to the selected net.
Region name
Displays the user-defined name of the selected region
Region type
Displays the selected region's type
Inclusive - the place-and-route tool can place logic within the region
Exclusive - the place-and-route tool cannot place logic within the region (supported only for ProASIC3/E families)
Empty - the place-and-route tool will not place any logic within an empty region; however, the routing resources within the region can be used
Region Color
Displays the color assigned to the selected region. You can change this color by choosing a different color from the drop-down color box. You can also create a custom color by choosing Other from the drop-down color box. Changing a region's color does not change the color of existing regions of that type. It only changes the color of newly created regions of the selected type.
Region Extents
Displays the location and size of the selected region on the chip.
Origin - The x and y coordinates of the region's location
Width - The number of pixels extending horizontally from one end of the region to the other
Height - The number of pixels extending vertically from one end of the region to the other
Note: You cannot use this dialog box to change a region's size. To change a region's size, select the region in the ChipPlanner window, and then drag a corner of it to the right or left to change its width. Drag a corner of the region up or down to change its height.
Resource Usage
Displays a table indicating the number of the resource, an icon depicting its graphical representation, its name, and the percentage of the regions placed in the design (for example, if a region has 100 core cells and 50 of them are placed, then the resource usage is 50% for the core cells).
