Context Menus

Common Thumbnail Commands

Set as Current: Sets a scenario as current, which means that any excitation or probe you create is automatically added to the current scenario.; The scenario you set as current has a checkmark on the top right corner of its thumbnail (or next to its name, if the 3D Simulation panel's display is set to text). Also, the excitation and probe objects referenced by the active (current) scenario are marked with a checkmark on the top right corner of their thumbnail, as a feedback for the user. The scenario that is set as current is simulated when you click Play on the Compass, assuming that no other object was pre-selected.; This command is available when more than one scenario exists. Otherwise, the scenario is assumed to be current.; See Creating a Manufacturing Scenario.

Simulate and Generate Results: Simulates the scenario. Any results are computed and the thumbnails appropriate for them appear in the Results panel.; See Generating Scenario Results.

Set as Active: Sets the selected state as active; that is, as the one used in the scenario.; See Creating a Simulation State.
Update Simulation State: Modifies the selected state so that any modifications to the content in the work area are incorporated into the state.; See Creating a Simulation State.
Apply Simulation State: Modify the content in the work area so that it reflects the selected state.; See Creating a Simulation State.

Launch Gantt Chart: Launches the Gantt chart for the entire sequence.
Add to Current Scenario: Adds the selected excitation to the current scenario (if it is not already referenced by it).; See Creating 3D Animation Actions.
Remove from Current Scenario: Removes the selected excitation to the current scenario (if it was previously referenced by it).; See Creating 3D Animation Actions.

Add to Current Scenario

Adds the selected probe to the current scenario (if it is not already referenced by it).

In the case of the Interference probe, you have specify Highlight or Interrupt:

Remove from Current Scenario

Removes the selected sequence from the current scenario (if it was previously referenced by it), but it does not delete the probe.

Activate/Deactivate: Toggles the activation status of the probe. An active motion trace probe produces a 3D trace during simulation. An inactive one does not.; See Creating a Motion Trace Probe.
Edit: Displays the context toolbar so you can delete or redefine the offset. The context toolbar appears at the point that you selected. Click closely to the edge of the stamp to be assured that the context toolbar is visible.; See Creating a Motion Trace Probe.
Export Trace: Exports the content of any generated 3D trace (position as a function of time) to a file. When the Save As dialog box appears, choose a directory and save the content.
Import Trace: Imports a previously exported 3D trace from a file. Navigate to the directory and select the data file.

Clash Detection Off: Deactivates clash detection.; See Activating the Dynamic Clash Probe.
Clash Detection On: Enables clash detection. When a limit is transgressed during a simulation, the content is highlighted but the simulation continues.; See Activating the Dynamic Clash Probe.
Clash Detection Stop: Enables clash detection. When a limit is transgressed during a simulation, the simulation stops.

Activate: Updates the corresponding Data Readout dialog box (for both instantaneous and logged values). This command is only available if the Data Readout probe is not already active, meaning the data readout values were not updated and not logged. If Data Readout is active, the context menu displays Deactivate.; See Creating a Data Readout Probe.
Deactivate: Stops updating the corresponding Data Readout dialog box (for both instantaneous and logged values). This command is only available when the Data Readout probe is active.; When a Data Readout dialog box is active, its thumbnail shows a check-mark on its top-right corner.; Only the Data Readout dialog boxes set as active are updated while running simulation or while manipulating the corresponding resources, such as joint values or TCP. However, you can have multiple data readout objects active at the same time, that is, one for each selected resource. All active ones are updated
Edit: Enables you to delete, define, or redefine the offset. The context toolbar appears at the point that you selected. Click closely to the edge of the stamp to make the context toolbar visible.
