    Hi Brian,

     

    Thank you for the update.

     

    Just to clarify, the legacy database I referred to is our internal database for legacy devices. Unfortunately, there is limited information available regarding this wrong data issue. Based on the available info, I believe it was originally initiated from a customer-reported case.

     

    You are also correct that the placement rules are enforced within Quartus. Since these rules are built into the tool, they cannot be overridden through a TCL command.

     

    I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

OK.

For wrong data, you kept referring to legacy database, this is from internal FAE / staffs only?

Do wrong data reports from customers or internal smoke / sanity tests?

There is no way we can use with newer version no override no tcl command to bypass fitter rules on coexist?

Thanks,

Brian

    I guess we had this more than enough on understanding the whold story.

    I deeply appreciate the sharing and assisting  on this ticket.

    I will close and report as solution.

    So I think 17.x is still worth to keep.

    Thanks,

    Brian
