Load the board explorer on the Quark d2000 J5 and look at the description:
I am not sure how best to refer to the various pin names. In the description, it users the DIO_* naming convention. In other documentation, the pins those signals are connected to are referred to using different names, for example PWM1, LPD_SIG_OUT, etc. You can see all of the names for that pin if you look at the pin it connects to (J3 Pin 2):
It is very confusing to tell what is what. The tool will (eventually) auto-highlight the pin for you if you hover over DIO_9 in the first example, however it isn't entirely obvious how best to let the user know when they hover over that pin that it is referred to as different things, or that it has multiple functions.
I was thinking about having a "secondary information" status bar type element on the screen that could show minimal second level information about a pin; no details, just the various aliases it has.
