FPGA - Critical Path Highlighting

[Chris_12345]

In the following link, there is a mention of critical path highlighting in FPGA code, along with a screenshot of a debugging utility:

However, I can't figure out what this utility is. What is it?

Chris_1234: that screenshot is showing the timing violations tool. It should automatically pop up during FPGA compilation if your design fails to pass timing requirements.
