Troubleshooting a Circuit in TINA Software: Help Needed!

In summary, the conversation is about a circuit called "Dancing Light" created with TINA software. The circuit is not working and the person is seeking help. They explain that the circuit is meant to make LEDs flash one at a time, with the speed controlled by a potentiometer and a 555 Timer used to provide clock pulses to the CD4017 decade counter. A description of the intended function and expected performance of the major sub-assemblies would be helpful in troubleshooting the issue.

The circuit is intended to perform flashing LEDs one at a time. One LED will glow then next will glow and so on. the potentiometer is used to vary the speed of flashing of LEDs.. The 555 Timer is being used to feed the clock pulse to the decade counter CD4017...
