Hello
Yeah I can see this too in the Technology Map Viewer i.e post fit netlist viewer. I can also confirm I see this in hardware using SignalTap! :mad: I have never had a problem with this up to Q2 12.1 so at the moment I am not sure what is going on, I may revert back to this version of Quartus if I can't sort this imminently. - Altera_Forum

At least in signal tap you can make a "right mouse click" on the signal's name and choose between "MSB on Top, LSB on Bottom" or "LSB on Top, MSB on Bottom" to reverse the bit order to get the correct representation displayed... I had same issues as I tend to define the vector as x downto y (e.g. 15 downto 0 with Bit15 being MSB) rather x to y (e.g. 0 to 15 with Bit 0 being MSB)...

That is an interesting point, I have never noticed that before in SignalTap and explains a lot with the debugging I was doing yesterday. Is this different to previous QuartusII versions because I have been using SignalTap since Quartus2 v8 and I have never had to change the MSB/LSB representation for std_logic_vector's?

Does altera read these forums? Is there any way to send this "bug report" to them directly?
