Hi SyafieqS_Intel, thank you very much. Finally, I can't find any TCL command to open the SignalTap II GUI with using the GUI to add signals for debugging. Thank you very much.

Note that quartus_stpw command can open a stp file, but user can't use that GUI to add a new signal for debugging.

When you try double-clicking to add nodes in the GUI, what is actually happening when you say that you can't add new signals? The Node Finder does not open?

If you instantiated Signal Tap as an IP in your project instead of just using the .stp file, you cannot add or change the number of tapped nodes without going back into the IP Parameter Editor and then recreating the .stp file based on that IP variant after Analysis & Elaboration.
