In this document, we will explain how to create a custom key in the Simvision platform, specifically a reset and rerun simulation key in GUI mode. This tip is time-saving because it allows one to reset the simulation without waiting to acquire a license again, which is especially useful when there are limited licenses available in the project. Although the tool provides multiple keys for this procedure, pressing one key instead of five is always more efficient!

How to:

In GUI mode on SimVision (Console), press the ‘View’ button, then select ‘Customize’.

In the new window, click ‘New Toolbar’ and then ‘New Button’. Note that a toolbar must be selected in order to display any custom buttons.

Next, choose an icon from the available options, assign a label (which will be the button’s name), and, if needed, add help text. Then, select that the script written in the white space will be a Simulator command.

Enter the following command in the white space, as shown above, and then press ‘OK’:reset; sn {clear screen; res; rel; test;}; run.
