ModelSim PE Graphic Interface Getting Started with ModelSim PE

When you see this view, you can use the mouse to collapse and expand levels by clicking on

the plus and minus boxes. Note - within the Structure window only - VHDL items are indicated

with a box and Verilog items are indicated with a circle.

[ + ] A plus box or circle before a name indicates that you can expand the item to view the

lower level elements it contains. You do this by clicking the box containing the plus sign.

[ - ] A minus box or circle before a name indicates that the item has been expanded and that

you can hide the names of the lower level elements it contains. You do this by clicking on the

box containing the minus sign.

[ ] An empty box or circle indicates that the item contains no lower-level elements.

Clicking on an item name - as opposed to the box or circle - will select that item. Clicking on

a second item will select the new item and deselect the first item. In the Wave and Signals

windows you can make multiple selections of HDL item names; control-click to add selections,

shift-click to extend selections.
