FYI, in 14.0 with the new Qsys-based "IP Catalog" Parameter Editor, you don't need to ever have Qsys "Generate..." the IP files.

Just add the .qsys file to your project file list, and Quartus will automatically generate the IP files into the temporary db/ folder in your project directory during the compilation process. i.e. you don't ever have to see the generated files cluttering up your tree.
