Viewing Rate Changes in Simulink
Simulink supports viewing different sample times as different colors which is fully supported for System Generator
blocks. To enable the Sample Time Colors feature, select the pulldown menu Format > Sample Time Colors. The
Simulink tool does not automatically recolor the model with each change you make to it, so you must select Edit >
Update Diagram to explicitly update the model coloration. To return to your original coloring, disable the sample
time coloration by, again, choosing Sample Time Colors.
