Altera_ForumIt can't be done in that direction. If you want a graphical view of VHDL code, you can use the RTL viewer after synthesis. But it's not always easy to read

My question is how to create a project made in vhdl code in a block schematic representation......it can't be made by do create/udate->create ymbol files for current fle?

Why do you want a schematic ? Only to get an overview of the struture of your design? As Daixiwen mentioned you can use the RTL viever of Quartus for that purpose. Kind regards GPK

Iam making a bigger project in block diagram schematic file form and i want to add this .vhd project file to it....

In that case yes you can right click on the vhdl file in quartus and select "Create Symbol Files for Current File". It will create a bsf file that is a block you can add to your block diagram schematic file.

Thanks this seems to work!!!!

I have a small project attached. It uses Verilog, but there is no difference for Symbol generation. Kind regards GPK

When I try this conversion from vhdl to bsf (symbol) the file>create/update has all menu entries are greyed out (not selectable). What is the trick to creating a symbol?

Is the file part of the project?
