Is it possible to archive snapshots?

Hello,

I would like to be able to archive Quartus Pro's intermediate results in a similar manner that Vivado does with design checkpoints (.dcp). The snapshot seemed to be a similar tool but, on further investigation, doesn't seem to be geared towards this kind of usage.

For example, even though I activated the creation of the snapshots (and they are available when opening the project), I cannot export to a .qdb file (error message: 'no partitions are available to export'). Why can't the default partition be exported?

The objective is to be able to go back to some previous implementation results (of a complete design) without having to rerun the complete implementation.

Thanks for your help!

      @KennyTan_Altera ,

      Sorry for the delay. I had lost track of this and the notifications were in my spam.

      Given that test_ram only contains test_rd_ram.ip I don't understand what you mean by "can you try to use include at the top of your .v/vhdl files to include the necessary files?"
