Quartus Prime (Lite Edition): timing violation signals on Netlist

How can I look signals out that cause timing violations (setup/hold) on Netlist.

If there are some timing violations on some signals, I can put FFs between those signals to prevent setup/hold timing violations.

My question is how can I figure it out where is the right place to put FFs? (in Quartus Prime)

Thanks.

    Use the Timing Analyzer (aka TimeQuest). From the Quartus Compilation report in the Timing Analyzer folder, right-click the clock domain(s) in the summary reports that are failing timing and select Report Timing. This will create a detailed timing report in the timing analyzer. You can then right-click a failing timing path and cross-probe to the Chip Planner or the Technology Map Viewer to get more detail about the failing path(s).
