6.1.2. Upgrading Project Assignments and Constraints
Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software introduces changes to handling of project assignments and constraints that the Quartus Settings File (.qsf) stores. Upgrade other Quartus software product project assignments and constraints for migration to the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software. Upgrade other Quartus software product assignments with Assignments > Assignment Editor, by editing the .qsf file directly, or by using a Tcl script.
Note: If you open a Quartus® Prime Standard Edition software project in the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software, and that project contains unsupported junction temperature setting values, you can modify these settings by clicking Assignments > Settings > Operating Settings and Conditions > Temperature. Click OK, and then click Yes when prompted to update the values.
The following sections detail the various types of project assignment upgrade that migration requires.
