Cameo Simulation Toolkit Magic Model Analyst allows you to control a model simulation using the debug buttons such as Suspend, Resume, Stepinto, and Stepover. The table below explains the functions of all of the debug buttons.
Button
Name
Shortcut key
Function
Start Simulation
F8
To start simulating an object of the initialized session shown in the Sessions pane.
Restart
F8
To restart the last simulated element.
Suspend
F8
To pause a running simulation session in the Sessions.
Resume
F8
To resume a simulation session.
Step into
F5
To simulate and animate a currently active element in a selected simulation session in the Sessions pane.
Step over
F6
To simulate a currently active element in a selected simulation session and run animation in the background.
Terminate
None
To stop a session in the Sessions pane. If the selected session contains sub-sessions, all of the sub-sessions will also be terminated.
You can examine and edit variables in the Variables pane (see Variables Pane), pause the a model simulation at predefined breakpoints (see Breakpoints), or simulate one element at a time using the Stepinto or Stepover button.
The Debugger pane includes a player-like control panel for a step-by-step simulation (see the table above), threads or Behaviors with an expandable stack trace (see Understanding simulation sessions), input/output console for custom commands or expressions evaluation (see Simulation console), Variables pane/runtime structure (see Runtime Value Monitoring), and Breakpoints pane.
