ModelSim message display issue

Hi,

I'm a student for studying verilog and simulation by using ModelSim.

I setup my enviornment with 'ModelSim Intel FPGA 2020.1 Starter edition'

Actually, I read some pdf files Intel provided, did some fixes.. but I couldn't fine proper solution for below.

I made files with verilog with $display.

But I cannot see print of $display on my transcript.

What I did was

(1) Add msgmode and displaymsgmode options with both

---> Not effective (*I copied ini file, updated options, and linked it when making new project)

(2) I used '-displaymsgmode both' option with vsim command when launch simulation.

--> MessageViewer appeared my $display log message, but transacipt didn't yet.

Is there any solution $display message appears on transcript ?

Thanks,

JA24

    Assuming you are using Quartus Lite/Standard, you can refer to the testbench_1.v file in the quartus-std-lite-pll-ram design example for guidance on how to use it.

    https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/programmable/703090/21-1/simulation-quick-start.html


    By the way, ModelSim has been replaced by Questa Intel FPGA Edition, and there are no plans to fix any issues found in ModelSim.

    We recommend using Questa Intel FPGA Edition. (starter or non-starter version, depending on your need)
