21.8.8 create_scenario

Description

Creates a new timing scenario with the specified name. You must provide a unique name (that is, it cannot already be used by another timing scenario).

A timing scenario is a set of timing constraints used with a design. Scenarios enable you to easily refine the set of timing constraints used for Timing-Driven Place-and-Route, so as to achieve timing closure more rapidly.

This command creates an empty timing scenario with the specified name and adds it to the list of scenarios.

Note: It is recommended to use the organize_tool_files command instead of this command.
