HDL-Designer 2002: cannot edit generic mapping in Block-Diagram-view

Hallo to all.

While I'm designing a new component in a block diagram view, I have to instantiate another component and have to edit the generic value of this instantiated component.

If I want to edit it directly in the view, the status line tells me "cannot edit read-only text". If I call the Object Proberties window, I also cannot edit the generic values. At all other machines were we use the HDL-Designer too, there is no problem to edit it.

There is no write-protect in the directory-structure and files of the libraries, I'm working with.

I tried the following with no result:

- I took another .hdsprefs from a machine were the HDL-Designer works correctly

- I newly installed the HDL-Designer with previously uninstalling it

- I created a new project, mapping new libraries in another directory, creating a new component with generics and tried to instantiate it.

Is there anyone who can help me to solve this problem?

Thanks to all

have a nice day Peter

Loading thread data ...

Are you sure? Did you grep for the generic to find the file? then

chmod guo+r file.vhd

?

In that much time, you could have loaded emacs and vhdl-mode :)

chmod guo+rw file.vhd

Thank you for your help. The problem solved. It is a bug in the HDL-Designer. After I installed the update-version, I can now edit the generic.
