Settings
You can select an EDA simulation tool in the New Project Wizard (File
menu) when you create a new project, or in the Simulation page that is
under EDA Tool Settings in the Settings dialog box (Assignments menu).
The Simulation page allows you to select a simulation tool and specify
options for the generation of Verilog and VHDL output files and the
corresponding SDF Output File, and, for power analysis, a Signal Activity
File (.saf). Figure 2 shows the Simulation page of the Settings dialog box.
