2.1i: FPGA Editor: Can't change reference location for macros
Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard
General Description:
When saving a macro file or a design as a macro and the
reference component is not selected, a component is
selected by the tool. The reference component seems
to be changed by selecting the component, then 'Set
Macro Reference Comp' and the messages agree. But,
when the macro is loaded into another design, the reference
component is still set to the original reference component.
Can this be changed?
Solution 1:
If you save a design file as a macro or save a macro, it chooses
a refcomp that can't be changed.
If you're editing a design file, you can't specify a refcomp, nor
can you specify a refcomp when you save a design file as a
macro..
If you created a macro, make sure that the refcomp is set before
the macro is saved, or the tools will choise the refcomp that can't
be changed.
