Access: |
Ribbon: Environments tab Begin panel Dynamic Simulation. The Simulation Player floats above the UI and can be easily repositioned. |
Returns you to construction mode , where you can modify your model. |
|
Rewinds the simulation . |
|
Stops the simulation. |
|
Plays or replays the simulation. |
|
Deactivates screen refresh during a simulation. |
|
Moves to the end of the simulation. |
|
Plays the simulation in a loop until you click Stop. |
|
Final time |
Sets the time for the simulation to run. By default, this value is 1.000 s. |
Images |
Displays the number of images to save during the simulation. By default, this value is 100 images when the Final time is at its default of 1.000 s. The maximum is 500,000 images. Note: When you change the value of Final time, the software automatically changes the value in the Images field so that it stays the same proportion to the new Final time.
|
Image |
Controls the frame display step. For example, if this value is 1, every frame displays. If this value is 5, every fifth frame displays. Available only when simulation mode is active, but a simulation is not running. By default, this value is 1 image. |
Simulation time slider |
Displays the progress of the simulation. |
|
Displays the elapsed time when a simulation is running. |
|
Displays the percent of the simulation that is complete. |
|
Displays real-time elapsing during the simulation. You cannot edit this field. |
