Subject: Want Expanded PrimeTime 'clock network delay (propagated)' Reports

Hi John,

When using PrimeTime, is there anyway to get the reports to expand the
"clock network delay (propagated)" statements to see how PrimeTime is
actually calculating the clock paths?  With circuit clocking getting more
complex and library modeling issues, I'd like to be able to look at the
numbers to increase my confidence in what is being reported, instead of
blindly trusting Primetime.  Below is an example.

  Point                                                   Incr       Path
  -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  clock TCK (rise edge)                                   0.00       0.00
  clock network delay (propagated)                        9.02       9.02
  ucore/utestblk/utst_gpio_mux/portb5_sel_reg_0/CK (SDFFX1)

Thanks,
