Preserving Unconnected Nets for Signal Tap

Is there any way of preserving nets that are unconnected to anything other than signal tap? I want to add a counter to monitor another signal that has no other purpose other than viewing in ST.

That does not work in practice.

After doing what you suggest in the assignment editor, and rerunning synth&elab, the reg is still not available in Node Finder under any of the Signaltap II filters. It is only available under the post-synthesis filter.

Likewise for when adding /* synthesis syn_noprune */ directive.

Does this capability actually work, or is it just in the manuals?
