pins - component

Hello. Can I physically (pin FPGA) use ports operator, which is used as an ingredient? When I use the pin planner, I see ports only main entity. How to do it? Thanks.

Nonetheless, the pins can only connect to the top level. So if you want pins to connect to a lower level you have to create ports for it on all higher levels and then map it trough the levels. As Tricky said, the names do not need to match the pin name as you can assign them to pins using the pin planner.
