1048 Declarations before signals generated twice in Verilog  7.0.5 In Verilog mode the Declarations before signals are generated twice 
1047 New ports are not on the sensitivity list. This will cause linter warnings and undesired VHDL behaviour. 7.0.4 New ports are not on the sensitivity list
1046 Ease crashes when merging a net containing a src ripper 7.0.4 Ease crashes when merging nets while the net that is merged contains a src ripper.
1043 No default label settings for net created with auto connect ports 7.0.3 When using auto connect ports to create a new net, the new net will not get the default label settings specified in the user options.
1042 Crash when trying to create library that already exists 7.0.3 If you try to create a new library but give a name of an existing library, Ease will crash.
1041 Unable to change range information for ports 7.0.3 In some cases it is not possible to change the range information for ports that have a vector type.
1040 Skeleton not created for HDL architectures 7.0.2 The HDL file skeleton is not always present the first time you enter a HDL file architecture
1039 Testbench generator should copy generics 7.0.2 Testbench generator should copy generics to the testbench entity, so that they can be used in range definitions for local signals
1038 Monitor process should have sensitive ports 7.0.2 Process/Always ports on the monitor should be level sensitive
1018 All HDL files are opened when loading a project 7.0.1 When opening a project all HDL files (for achitectures, packages and processes) are opened. This is a major performance issue when using projects stored on network drives.
1007 Propagate portname changes into the HDL Files 7.0.1 Port name changes shoud be propagated into the HDL Files.
1006 Hierarchical VCM actions for entities/modules 7.0.1 Add support for hierarchical VCM actions on entities/modules
997 Configurable default component name 7.0.1 It would be nice to be able to configure the default component name. Now it is always u<n>, but something like u_<entity name>_<n> would be nicer.
996 Improved verification 7.0.1 Ease should issue a warning when trying to connect 2 output ports. In Verilog mode this does not issue any warning at all ...
995 Show instantiated from in browser 7.0.1 Currently it is not possible to find out where an entity/module is instantiated. Please visualize this information in the browser.
994 Improved visibility of selected nets and wire segments 7.0.1 When selecting a net (e.g. using the diagram find dialog), it is sometimes difficult to find the selected net. The color of the net does not change, but only the nodes are 'highlighted' using the color black. This does not make it easy to spot the...
993 Improved visibility of selected objects 7.0.1 After using the find dialog, it is not always easy to find the selected object in the diagram. The selected object should be easier to spot.
990 Show branch name for version managed objects 7.0.1 The branch name is not shown for version managed objects: only the version number is shown. The branch name is now shown as info tip in the browser.
984 Propagating multiple ports up the hierarchy 7.0.1 Currently it is only possible to propagate one port up the hierarchy. Why is it not possible to propagate all selected ports at once ?
983 Connect bus rippers using CBN tags 7.0.1 It would be useful to be able to connect bus rippers using CBN tags and also to be able to use the Open connector on them.
819 Connection of tag to bus ripper 7.0.1 It should be nice if you can connect a tag to a busripper. For example to set a constant value on a part of a bus.
800 Add command line scripting to generate HDL from previous versions 7.0.1 When using RCS it is hard to find the difference between two Ease project versions. Generating the source from the two versions and a diff will give information about the difference between the two versions. It would be nice when Ease supports command...
619 VHDL parser does not check on ranges of connectivity 7.0.1 Create a component with port dbus(4:0) and another component with port dbus(2:0), autoconnect dbus(4:0) and do a verify. The connection to dbus(2:0) is an error in ModelSim, but not in the verify.
643 Too many different Scriptum windows 7.0.1 Too many different Scriptum windows are popped up
660 Default HDL design flow missing 7.0.1 HDL design flow wizard: Should this be set for every new project? It would be nice to be able to set a default.
552 Truth Tables support 7.0.1 As Title
418 Automatic Testbench Generation 7.0.1 Automatic Testbench Generation - To automatically generate the skeleton testbench file for a block or design would make life very easy indeed.
391 Pop up Edit Port dialog when adding a port 7.0.1 When entering a diagram port (for entity): I select my location, and an "Enter port name" box pops up. I think it would be better if the "edit port" box popped up. Most times I will be adding a comment or a range, so why not save me...
380 Possibility to change actual values for more than one generic at a time 7.0.1 It is not possible to change actual values for more than one generic at a time.
142 File Open Dialog 7.0.1 - In the "File->Open" directory the directories and projects are mixed, not neatly ordered.
- Directories and files are also sorted in an odd way: first all with capital letters then the rest.
- In the area of the Selected Directory only...
