Hi,

I am going through the Altium tutorial here
**broken link removed**

on implementing an FPGA design (simple counter) in Altium.

I am having trouble with the "Wiring the Design" portion in that I cannot seem to connect U5 and U1 to the Q[7..0] bus on U2, which drives some LEDs. I have used the "bus entry" as instructed in the tutorial but I get "signal has no driver" errors during compilation.

I also cannot label the bus properly. In the tutorial it shows as a bus name, but when I try to add a name, it just shows up as a net name and I get a warning during compilation.

What am I doing incorrectly?

Thanks.

Okay-the labeling and connectivity are related. When I labeled the bus specifically SQ[7..0], the compilation was successful.
