    In the "Compilation Report" Tab, both for "Analysis & Synthesis" and for "Fitter", you'll find a "Resource Usage Summary" and a "Resource Utilization by Entity" report.

    The navigation pane will also show resource usage.

    Hi rbugalho,

    I checked the reports you mentioned in post but I still did not get it.

    what I am looking for is something like 423558 (µm^2), would you help me on this?

    thanks a lot.

    There is no such thing, it does not make sense for an FPGA.

    Each FPGA model has a fixed amount of resources (LEs, M*K blocks, etc, etc). And a fixed die size.

    Your design may or may not use all the resources in your FPGA, but they're there and the die doesn't magically shrink or increase.
