The Design Runs windows displays run status, information, and provides access to management commands in the pop-up menu. You can manage multiple runs from this window.
When multiple runs exist, the active run appears in bold. The Vivado IDE displays design information for the active run. The Project Summary, Reports, and Messages reflect the results of the active run.
The Vivado IDE opens the active design by default when you select Open Synthesized Design or Open Implemented Design in the Flow Navigator. Make a run active when you select Make Active from the pop-up menu. The Vivado IDE updates results to reflect the information about the newly designated active run. Double-click any synthesized or implemented run to open the design in the Vivado IDE.
