After activating the creation mode, you can use the schematic selection tools as usual. Once one or more blocks are selected you can specify their type of representation by selecting either one of the following options from the Simulation Project ribbon or the context menu:
Type |
Description |
|
The selected block will be considered as 3d model for the newly created simulation project if possible. If the corresponding block does not have a 3d representation, then the block will be considered as schematic element for the newly created simulation project. |
|
The selected block will be considered as schematic element for the newly created simulation project. |
|
The selected block will not be considered for the newly created simulation projects |
Colored frame around the block |
Description |
None |
This block will not be considered for the simulation project creation. |
Orange frame (with shadow) |
This block will be considered as 3d element for the simulation project creation. |
Light blue frame |
This block will be considered as schematic element for the simulation project creation. |
The simulation project definition mode can be aborted without creating
a new simulation project by selecting
Simulation Project:
Close Simulation
Project Mode.
Once all block representations are specified properly, you can proceed
with the next step of the simulation project creation by selecting Simulation Project:
Create Simulation
Project. This operation will open a Create
New Simulation Project dialog box which allows you to specify global
project settings such as project name, project type,solver type, etc.
Once the simulation project creation is completed, the newly created project
will be represented by a corresponding simulation task entry in the navigation
tree. The selected solver type will be launched whenever this simulation
task is updated.
The corresponding project can easily be opened by selecting Navigation
tree:
Tasks <Simulation
Project Task Name>
Edit...
. In the same way, the simulation project can be renamed (Rename)
or deleted (Delete).
Please note that deleting a simulation project task does also delete the
corresponding project and that this operation can not be undone.
