This is a known limitiation, although easy enough to work around.
The way the waveform editor works - source of TBW is to convert
that TBW to a HDL file and then the HDL file is what is being
simulated. The output HDL file is called vhw for VHDL. For verilog
it is tfw. I suspect what you are trying to do is to create the TBW
and then move it around. Dont do this as tbw will not work if you
do this. If you open the tbw in a text editor, you will notice
there are dependency files it needs and that is why it would be
able to do much with the tbw. This is why a better alternative is
to click on the add testbench to project process and then now you
will have the vhw or tfw added to the project. This file you can
move around to where ever you want and it will work. It is standard
HDL. The problem is that every time you edit the tbw you will need
to do this. This is a limitiaiton of both Proj Nav and the Waveform
Editor. Proj Nav does not let you create files inside a directory
out of the project directory and that is why everything is
dependant on this. If you would like this capability, please open a
case with Technical Support.
