Show Changes

The Show Changes command is used to displays the changes in the system since the last go command.

1.
From the Simulation Execution menu, select Analyze > Show. The Show Changes dialog box opens. You can display Changes, Future, Racing and Clock. You can also choose between Automatic Update, or the Freeze option.
2.
Select the Change button. The Show dialog box opens.

General Changes - Lists the changes in textual elements that occurred during the last go. Lists the changes that occurred in states (entered, exited) and activities (active, nonactive, hanging) during the last go.

Note:
The changes are listed according to the order in which the modifications took place:

* Conditions: became true” or “became false

* Data-items: “changed”, “Changed from x to y”, “was read” or “was written”

* Events: included in list if they were generated

* Activity: “started”, “stopped”, “suspended”, “resumed”

* State: “entered,” “exited”.

If automatic update is selected, the dialog box updates as changes occur. Freeze retains the current output in the dialog box.
