altpll not supported for Arria V?

Am I missing something stupid? When I try to place the altpll megafunction using the wizard I get: 

 

"Megafunction altpll is not supported by the selected device family (Arria V)" 

 

Well, I guess I missed documentation about a new way of configuring the fractional plls. Can anybody give me a link? 

 

Quartus 12.1sp1 on Windows 7 64-bit 

 

Thanks.

They use altera_pll now. Its best to generate the function from the wizard when migrating

Thanks. That was the pointer I needed. Is there a link to documentation on this somewhere? 

 

I see the stuff in c:\altera\12.1sp1\ip\altera and I have added it to my project so I can get at stuff, but it would be nice to have a reference.

Also, for anyone who uses altera_pll, you're likely to trip over this bug in Quartus:
