Hello.
We've got same problems with SignalTab II exept one thing. Sometimes, after some compilation SignalTab stop working. When I run acquiring (Single Run or Autorun) it shows message "Acquiring pre-trigger data" and hangs in that state. It doesn't mean if I choose trigger conditions or not chosen trigger at all. Restarting acquiring in signaltab doesn't solve problem.
The only things that helps is changing project in some way - add/remove some probes in signaltab setup window and recompile project.
Device: Stratix III EP3SL110F1152C2
Quartus 9.1 sp2
Windows XP SP3
PS One compilation takes about 20-30 minutes, so it very boring to find that after some changes in project Signaltab not working. Please help!
