Simulation item is displayed in the Project Tree when you simulate a toolpath.
When selected, tools are displayed below the splitter bar that enable you to simulate your calculated toolpaths, import a relief file as a simulation, export a simulation as a relief file, create a relief layer from a simulation, reset the simulation, delete the simulation, and control how the simulation is displayed:
