After some googling... there's an issue with a setting called "Display entity name for node name". Put simply: they (default) way get_node_info works for register names is not compatible with the filters get_pins accept. http://www.altera.com/support/examples/timequest/exm-tq-entity-instance-names.html set regs [get_registers *sync_pulse:*|t] foreach_in_collection reg $regs { set regName [get_node_info -name $reg] puts $regName regsub -all {\w*:} $regName {} regName puts $regName set clkPin [get_pins ${regName}|clk] # now you should be able to apply constraints based on $clkPin } I wouldn't call it abuse Quartus. But I would just live with the warnings; or suppress them. I don't like adding stuff I shouldn't just to suppress dumb warnings.
