Add Trace/Watch
The add trace/watch command opens a selection display to select signals and
variables to be traced or watched. This command can also be performed by
clicking on the magnifying glass icon on the tool bar. The selection display
contains a list of signals to the right which have a two sets of check boxes
to the left of their names. If the left box is checked, the signal/variable
will be displayed in the watch view. If the right box is checked the
signal/variable will be displayed in the trace view. The selection display
can be closed by clicking on the close button, but you can continue to use SVE
and run the simulation without closing the selection display.
The list of signals/variables displayed on the right correspond to only the
signals and variables of the currently selected entity. The left of the
selection display is a VHDL design hierarchy browser. You can select any
entity by clicking on it. Design subtrees may be opened or closed by
clicking on the "+'' or "-'' icons.
