Translating the Design After Schematic Changes

Each time that you change the input design, you must write a new EDIF file from ViewDraw for Design Manager to use. To keep this version of the schematic separate from previous versions, create a new version in Design Manager before implementing the design.


NOTE

When writing the EDIF file from ViewDraw for subsequent implementation in an existing Xilinx project, you must keep the same design.edn file name and project directory.


  1. In the Design Manager window, select Design New Version. This brings up the New Version dialog box, shown in the “New Version Dialog Box” figure. The version name increments by default.

  2. Change the name of this version, if desired, and add any comments for this version. Click OK to create this new version.

  3. Select this new version and re-implement the design by following the instructions in the “Implementing a Design” section.
