Waveform Window
Signal Name Pane
The Signal Name Pane displays the names of signals and
expressions that are in the currently selected group (see
Using
Multiple Signal Groups to View Relevant Data on page 4-11). The
Signal Name Pane displays the last component of the signal’s
hierarchical name. To see the signal’s full hierarchy name scroll to the
left, enlarge the pane, or point at the signal to see the full hierarchical
name in the Status Bar.
You can perform the following procedures within the Signal Name
Pane:
• Adding and Reordering Signals
• Expanding and Collapsing Vectors, Arrays, Records or User-
Defined Buses
Signal Value Pane
The Signal Value Pane displays the value of signals at the time pointed
to by cursor C1. Each signal has a default radix, as shown in
Table
4-1, Default Radices for Verilog, and Table 4-2, Default Radices for
VHDL.
Note:
In Interactive mode, you must unlink VirSim from the simulator in
order to display the current value of signals at cursor C1.
Otherwise, moving cursor C1 has no effect on the values displayed
in the Signal Value Pane, and the value displayed is the last
simulated value of the signal (at the Icur cursor).
