Incremental Compilation

Hello, I have a question.

In my project, I set all modules to partitions.

What does Quartus do when I set all modules even top level to post-fit, then I modify a child module and change connection between all modules?

Does Quartus automatically chang all modules, which are modified to source-file then compile then change them back to post-fit after compilation?

What's different between, if I keep all partition in post fit and change them to source file?

Thanks !

    If you set the partitions to "post-fit", Quartus will use the last fitting and ignore your changes. You just have to look at the Warnings, as an according statement will be given out.
