SmartTime Constraints Editor is a tool in the Designer software that enables you to create, view, and edit timing constraints for use with SmartTime timing analysis and timing-driven optimization tools. This editor includes powerful visual dialogs that guide you toward capturing your timing requirements and timing exceptions quickly and correctly. In addition, it is closely connected to the SmartTime Timing Analysis View, which enables you to quickly analyze the impact of constraint changes.
SmartTime Constraints Editor View
The SmartTime Constraints View is divided into two parts:
Constraint Browser: Categorizes constraints based on requirements and exceptions.
Constraint List: Provides details of each constraint.
You can perform the following tasks in the SmartTime Constraints View:
Select a constraint type from the Constraint Browser and create or edit the constraint.
Double-click a row in the Constraint List to edit the corresponding constraint.
Select a row and right-click to display the shortcut menu, which you can use to edit, delete, or copy the selected constraint to a spreadsheet.
Select multiple rows and right-click to display the shortcut menu which you can use to either delete the selected constraints or copy them to a spreadsheet.
Select the entire spreadsheet and copy it to another spreadsheet.
