I think it is better to make my question clear here:

In order to check it is the matter of regeneration of sopc system or not.

I open the generated project file in Quatus (all generated files are kept, and the worst setup slack is -0.597ns), I recompiled by double click compilation design in Quatus GUI. The timing result (0.173) is still different with previous result(-0.597) which is compiled by make script. But if I recompile the same project file in Quatus GUI again, it will stay the same (0.173). I do not understand, are there any difference between Quatus GUI and script command?
