Graphical User Interface Watch Pane Figure 2-53. Scrollable Hierarchical Display Two Ref handles that refer to the same object will point to the same Watch pane box, even if the name used to reach the object is different. This means circular references will be draw as circular in the Watch pane. Selecting a line item in the Watch pane adds the item’s full name to the global selection. This allows you to past the full name in the Transcript (by simply clicking the middle mouse button) or other external application that accepts text from the global selection. Adding Objects to the Watch Pane To add objects to the Watch pane, drag-and-drop objects from the Structure tab in the Workspace or from any of the following panes: List, Locals, Objects, Source, and Wave. Alternatively, you can use the add watch command to add objects to the Watch pane. Expanding Objects to Show Individual Bits If you add an array or record to the Watch pane, you can view individual bit values by doubleclicking the array or record. As shown in Figure 2-54, /ram_tb/spram4/mem has been expanded to show all the individual bit values. Notice the arrow that "ties" the array to the individual bit display. 122 ModelSim SE User’s Manual, v6.3h July 2008
