Why does my O-RAN Intel® FPGA IP GUI not allow me to turn off “Enable Companding” in the Compression/Decompression dialog box?

Description

Due to a problem in the Intel® Quartus® Prime software version 20.2 and later,  the O-RAN Intel® FPGA IP has “Enable Companding” in the Compression/Decompression dialog box always turned on.

Resolution

This problem has been fixed starting with the the Intel® Quartus® Prime software version 20.3
