Silly question, but is there a way to invoke the SignalTap analyzer within the programmer? I see nothing for it in the menu selection after I programmed my design with the *.sof file that contains the defined Signaltap signals. This is for a Max 10 device.

    Okay, so it's not from within the Programmer, it's a standalone application? I'll have to check. When IT installed it, none of the icons showed up on the desktop, I had to go looking for the executable. Also, I haven't used Quartus/SignalTap since the Quartus II days and I've just inherited someone else's project I need to debug. Thanks, again!
