Hierarchy Tree and Graph
The Hierarchy tree and graph panels provide topology information in a list or textual format (hierarchy
tree) or in a graphical view. The hie ra rchy t ree di s play s much mo re info rmati on th an the gra phic al view.
However, the graphical view more readily displays relationships, locations, and status of components.

information based upon the type of view desired. Each tab holds hierarchy tree and graph views. The
vertical panel that separates these views can be moved to resize either the hierarchy tree or the graph
view. The three tabs are:
•Integrated_View
•Auto_Route_View
