Sigasi Visual HDL Preview (2024.2)

Posted on 2024-06-19

For users who want early access to the features and bug fixes of upcoming Sigasi Visual HDL releases, we have set up an extra release channel called Sigasi Preview.

The Sigasi Preview release channel offers more frequent releases than the official releases. This page gives an introduction to the most important changes.

Although these preview releases are less rigorously tested than the official releases, they are stable enough for daily use.

If you run into any problems, please let us know .
