The software supports the concurrent loading and displaying of multiple models in a
session.
All models that you load are listed in the Project
Browser and can be displayed individually or simultaneously in multiple floating
windows. When working with models in multiple windows, you can modify diagrams between the
windows using the drag-and-drop and copy-and-paste operations.
Note: Though you can work on multiple models in a session, you can execute a simulation for only
one model at a time.
Configure the Modeling Window
The modeling window includes a flexible layout and navigation
system that lets you create multiple windows, detach and float windows, view multiple models
and plots, view different parts of a model at the same time, and view the hierarchical
construction of a model.
You can split the modeling window horizontally or
vertically in a layout of up to four windows:
The following steps show you how to
change the layout of the modeling window from one to three
windows.
Inside of the modeling window, right-click. Be sure to
click the space just outside of and not directly on the model.
From the context menu that appears, select Split
Horizontal:
The window splits into two windows that are aligned horizontally, A over
B:
Click window B to make it active, right-click, and then from the context menu,
select Split Window.
The B window splits into two windows:
The windows on your screen should have the following configuration:
Note: You can close a window at any time.
Navigate in Split Windows
After splitting a window, you can select one of the new windows and navigate through
the various levels of a model. You can also resize or float a window to view a particular
diagram section.
Locate a model in a window that you want to work with and then click the
background of the model.
The navigation bar in the window darkens indicating that the window is
active.
Choose from the following:
For this option
Do this
Resize an active window
Select and move the horizontal or vertical separators as needed to
make the window larger or smaller.
Detach or float a window
Right-click, and from the context menu, select Show in
new window. A duplicate of the current view is displayed
in a fully detached window.
Note that when a simulation is performed,
scopes are frequently used to display results. Both scopes and
plots, which can be created from OML
commands, are displayed in floating windows.
Move through the various levels in a model
On the navigation bar, click , and select the section of the model you
