What this means is, compared to 16.5 where only nets were updated with logic commands, in 16.6 net association with the function pin is retained while performing edits with logic commands. Note: You can enable 16.5 behavior by setting the logic_edit_enabled option in User Preferences. Mixed-Case Support and Co-Design Option in Verilog from SCM The verilog generated by SCM supports mix-case port and module names in 16.6. In the earlier releases only lower-case names were supported. In addition, there is a new Mark as co-design option in import verilog form.

You can select this mode by choosing Setup – Application Mode – Wire Bond Edit, or by clicking the application mode field on the right of the bottom status bar. This application mode replaces the wirebond select command, which will be retired in a future release.
