Generating a Temporary Pin in Designer Mode

You need to generate temporary pins in designer mode for space-based routing between design partitions. These pins are generated only on the nets crossing design partitions.

To generate temporary pins:

• Right-click in the Concurrent Layout assistant and choose Generate Temporary Pins
  Temporary pins are added to the current design partitions.

In the following screenshot:

• Net AA is exactly on the area boundary of the design partition.
• Net BB is inside the area boundary.
• Net CC is outside the area boundary.

When you run the Generate Temporary Pins command, pins are generated only on the nets AA and CC.

To select these pins for deleting or cross-selecting their nets:

• Right-click in the Concurrent Layout assistant and choose Select Temporary Pins.
