Shouldn't be too hard and too much to ask. Want to type-in TDF to get a config. bit stream produced. Failed using my own text editor and use "add design file" or something, trying to find example tutorial, etc. etc.

Hi HansHolland,

If I'm not mistaken, you want to open the .tdf file and then edit it with Quartus pro right?

  1. Click the "File" at the top bar of Quartus pro, click ''Open'', select .tdf file type and open your own TDF file.
  2. Or straight click the ''Open'' located at bar below.
  3. Or click the ''Files" near ''Project Navigator'' window, double click it, click ''...'', select your TDF file, click ''Apply'' and click ''OK''. Double click the added file to open text editor.

Hope it helps.

Best regards,
Sheng
