Filtering Signals Displayed on the Signals Tab
The Signals Tab filter controls can be used to find all signals that
match a search pattern and exist in a selected section of the hierarchy.
1. Click left on the Constants, Generics, Variables, Signals, or Ports
toggle buttons (only Signals and Ports for Verilog).
2. Enter a text string in the text Entry field to narrow the range. When
used alone, the wildcard (*) displays all signals or ports for the
selected range.
3. Click left on a signal to select it.
The filter can accept two wildcard characters: * and ?.
• The * wildcard can match zero or more characters. When used
alone in the filter, it can find all instances in the selected range or
scope.
• the ? wildcard can match any one character.
Note:
For simulators that use VCD+ PLI/DKI system tasks, use the
+vpdports option on the simulator command line to save port
information in a .vpd file. VirSim can then separate signals and
ports. If not used, all are considered signals.
