Record #7956 Product Family: Software Product Line: Merged Core Product Part: FPGA Editor Product Version: 2.1i Problem Title: 2.1i FPGA Editor: How does one use the Manual Place option? Seems to be always grayed out. Problem Description: Urgency: Standard General Description: How does the Manual Place option work? It seems to be always grayed out. Solution 1: The way to use Manual Place option is to highlight the particular component in the list of unplaced components. Then hold down the CTRL key and click on the particular site on the device you'd like the component be placed into. So then you have both the component name as well as the site highlighted and can click on Manual Place which is not grayed out anymore. End of Record #7956 - Last Modified: 11/23/99 08:03
