Save Project As

I have a working project in Quartus II web edition and I would like to have a new project that starts with the old one. It will use the exact same VHDL code but 3 pins will be reassigned. Is there a way to start a new project that uses the current project as a starting point? I don't want to have to assign all those pins again. In other IDEs this could be done with Save As, but I can't find one. Any thoughts?

    pkolesni,

    From the Quartus II GUI, you can go to File --> New Project Wizard. Then, on page 1 of 5, you can clock on the button "Use Existing Project Settings..." That will allow you to specify a starting point.

    If that doesn't pull in the pin assignments, you can copy your pin assignments from your old QSF (in your project directory) into your new QSF. In this case, I would go ahead and create a new project so that your new QSF gets created. Then just copy and paste into it.
