Auto-Load Place-and-Route Data

When you open a project, the software loads the messages and data from previous compilations and displays messages in the Console. For large designs, loading the place and route data can take time, and you might want to speed things up a little. The Auto-load Place and Route Data option lets you disable (or enable) loading of this data when you open a project.

If you have disabled auto-loading, you cannot view place-and-route results in the Floorplan Editor or Timing Browser, or use the Tcl console. To enable these tools, click the Load Place and Route Data button in the main window.

You enable and disable auto-loading in the Preferences dialog box (File > Preferences).
