Ok, thanks for the response. I tried creating post-fit partition on Top, but when I compiled, I got a message warning that the previously generated Fitter netlist for partition "Top" does not exist. I believe it then used the previously generated synthesis netlist. After the recompile (that ran place & route again which I was hoping to avoid), subsequent compiles after that did recognize the "Top" post-fit netlist and didn't place & route again. I guess the post-fit netlist with full incremental compile enabled needs to have been generated before it will avoid doing place and route again. If adding a SignalTap .stp file to the project at this point, I'm assuming Incremental Compilation needs to be enabled (checked) for the SignalTap instance, but I'm confused as to how this relates to the incremental compile done for the partitions. Does this mean the routes & memories added for signalTap will be unchanged assuming nothng in the .stp file has changed from the last compile?
