Changing the Appearance of Input and Output Pins

Note

This topic applies only to SWCs specified as block diagrams.

  1. Right-click an input or output pin of the hierarchy/statement block element.
  2. Do one of the following:

    • Select Rename Pin from the context menu to change the name of the pin.
    • Select Pin Name to hide the pin name.

      Select the command again to reveal the pin name.

    • Select Remove Pin to remove the input or output pin.
  3. Right-click the block and select Show Pin Names or Hide Pin Names to show or hide all the pin names for the hierarchy/statement block.

When you connect a diagram element to a pin, and then connect the pin to another item inside the hierarchy/statement block, it is equivalent to connecting the two elements directly.
