LF VHDL to FSM bubble diagram translator

[MM]

Hi all,

I was wondering if there is such a thing available? I found a few free and
commercial tools to edit/create bubble diagrams, which would then generate
VHDL code, but I would like to be able to generate a FSM diagram from the
code...

Thanks,
/Mikhail

The quartus state machine viewer can do it.

Thanks Mike. Do you know if the viewer is included in the web(free) edition?
It is not clear from the editions' comparison at the Altera web site:

It's included, but won't run without a license.
What doesn't show in the .pdf is that the
diagram is interactive with the HDL viewer and hierarchy list.
I can click on any yellow schematic block
to see the state diagram,
click any arrow and see the equation,
click on the hierarchy list and locate the code, etc.
