It may be normal. no, this is before simulating when the wave editor allows you to make edits. Do you mean "I click "Wave editor menu file" > "save format..." > ... ? This menu write a macro file which is a list of TCL commands to be passed to Modelsim in order to configure the "wave editor". you can open this macro file in a simple text editor, you will see those commands click "wave editor menu file" > "save format..." > save to a macro file (wave_xxx.do)
if you want to restore your signals positions, radix, height, color... in the "wave editor",
just go to "file" > "load.." and load the macro file.
Every time I reload the macro (.do file?) the signal revert to alphabetical order. That's all Regards. --- Quote End --- This tool is not friendly compare to using VWF editor we were using for 20 years thanks! Larry
