14 years ago --- Quote Start --- While it may be frustrating that you can't get rid of all Warnings, you can Suppress them. If you right-click on a Warning, you can select "Suppress" and then you have the option of suppressing that exact message, or all similar messages. When you suppress messages, they now show up under the Suppressed tab in the Messages window, but no longer show up under the Processing tab. So, in effect you can filter the ones you don't want to see that you know about out so that only new Warnings, or the ones you might care about show up. --- Quote End --- You don't seem to get the message (pun intended). The idea is that warning messages are not made to suppress them, they draw attention that there is an inconsistency which may lead to a non-functional design. It is up to the designer to clean-up his code to 'not generate' useless, confusing warnings. There simply is no excuse for either Altera, a Third-Party or our own code to throw (useless or 'to be suppressed') warnings. --- Quote Start --- Conversely, if you are looking through all your Warnings and you see one that you know you have to deal with, but don't have time right now, you can Flag it (right-click on the Warning and select Flag) and it will go to the Flag tab. Then, later on you can address those Warnings that you flagged --- Quote End --- This may be quite useful. Will the flag last through the next compile(s)?
