There are four kinds of annotated elements in a model simulation: (i) Active, (ii) Visited, (iii) Breakpoint, and (iv) Last Visited elements. By default, active elements will be annotated with red, visited elements with green, last visited elements with orange, and breakpoints with yellow. Cameo Simulation Toolkit Magic Model Analyst allows you to customize the colors of these annotated elements through the Project Options dialog in the Animation group.

The Auto Open Diagrams option in the Project Options dialog and Simulation window allows Cameo Simulation Toolkit Magic Model Analyst to open a tab where you can see a diagram that contains a currently active Element in a non-silent simulation (animation is enabled). If you want to enable this option, you need to select true as its value. This is useful when you want to track the simulation current status. Select false as the value of Auto Open Diagrams when you would like to focus on just one diagram and avoid automatic switching or opening of diagrams. 

If the value of Auto Open Diagrams is false and you run a silent-mode simulation of an activity diagram that has a decision node without any decision input, Cameo Simulation Toolkit Magic Model Analyst will open the diagram and highlight all elements including the decision node and open a Question dialog to ask for a decision when the simulation reaches the decision node. However, if the value of Auto Open Diagrams is false, and you are running a non-silent simulation, Cameo Simulation Toolkit Magic Model Analyst will open the diagram and highlight only the decision node. 

To select the Auto Open Diagrams option in the Simulation window
