Problem Title:
M1.5 LOGIBLOX, FOUNDATION: Foundation Documentation on LogiBLOX implies that one can manipulate the pad_loc value of a LogiBLOX pad through the schematic editor



Problem Description:

Keyword:   pad_loc,

Urgency: standard

General Description;

The help file in Foundation regarding Logiblox pads may be somewhat misleading. It implies that one

can create a LogiBLOX pad with pad_loc specifications that can then be altered using the the schematic editor. This is not true.


Solution 1:

The only way to specify different pad location ranges on a LogiBLOX PAD module in a schematic currently is to generate a new LogiBLOX PAD module for each set of location ranges required.

Altenatively you can use a .UCF file to lock your pins to the desired location.
