Abstract:
A method is provided to produce a persistent representation of a annotation to a circuit design comprising: providing a block hierarchy that corresponds to the circuit design; displaying in a computer user interface display a first elaborated view of the circuit design that corresponds to the first instance of a block hierarchy; receiving user input to associate the annotation with a component of the elaborated view of the design; providing in a mirrored block hierarchy; and associating the annotation with the mirrored block hierarchy in computer readable storage media.
