• Reverse Play will play the simulation backwards.
• Pause will pause the simulation at the time you press it at. You can then look around and
interrogate the model, or step forwards and backwards through the simulation. To continue
playing from where you paused, just press Play again.
• Stop will stop the simulation playing and rewind back to the beginning.
• Play will play the simulation from the currently selected time.
• Step Forwards will step forwards a single step size (see Setting the step size for more
information).
• Forward will fast forward the simulation to the end.
The simulate tab also shows all Active Tasks at the current simulation time and how close to completion
they are (Progress, displayed as a percentage). The Status of each active tasks is also displayed as an
icon. For simulations where Planned and Actual dates are available, the status provides a visual
representation as to whether there is any variance between the planned and actual dates. See TimeLiner
task status for a definition of each status icon.
The Comments control bar can be used to view any comments attached to an active task (see the
section called "Commenting" in the chapter called "Reviewing" in the JetStream Roamer book for more
information on commenting).
While the simulate tab is in use, by default the current simulation date is overlayed on the main window.
The information displayed can be customized using the Overlay Text Dialog accessed using the Settings
button.
