1.16. Managing Hierarchical Platform Designer Systems

Platform Designer supports hierarchical systems that include one or more Platform Designer subsystems within another Platform Designer system. Platform Designer allows you to create, explore, and edit systems and subsystems together in the same Platform Designer window. Platform Designer generates the complete system hierarchy during the top-level system’s generation.

All hierarchical Platform Designer systems appear in the IP Catalog under Project > System. You select the system from the IP Catalog to reuse the system across multiple designs. In a team-based hierarchical design flow, you can divide large designs into subsystems and allow team members develop subsystems simultaneously.
