You can use the Simulation Position slider to quickly move forwards and backwards through the
simulation. Full left is at the beginning and full right is at the end.
The Date/Time box below the VCR buttons shows the point in time through the simulation. You can click
on the drop-down icon to the right of the date to display a calendar, from which you can select a date to
'jump' to.
The Settings Button
The Settings button opens the Simulation Settings dialog that enables you to define how the schedule is
simulated.
The Active Tasks
All Active Tasks are show in a multi-column table. You can move and resize table columns, if necessary.
You can view the current simulation time for each of the active tasks, and how close to completion they
are (Progress is displayed as a percentage). The Status of each active task 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
more information.
The Select Link Dialog
When you relink a task to an external schedule you will be prompted to select which link to use, as your
project may be linked to multiple schedules.
Field Selector Dialog
The Field Selector dialog determines various options used when importing data from a Link. The options
available may be different for each type of link source.
