Set Qsys path

The Qsys project is shared by several Quartus projects.

So, I always have to navigate to the Qsys Project path for re-generating Qsys.

Is there a way to set the Qsys path? I want to open Qsys from my Quartus and Qsys jumps to its project path.

Thanks for your attention!

PS: I am a newbie to Qsys.

    I noticed this too, and did not find a work-around as far as using the GUI goes. However, you can use a Tcl script to see if the .qsys file has changed, and then use Tcl to re-run the "Generate" stage.

    Take a look at the DE0-nano SDRAM project I posted, and look at the synth.tcl and synth_qsys.tcl files.

    Note that this project also turns the .qsys file into a .tcl file, but you can skip that step if you like.

    Cheers,
