Exploring the Underlying GoldSim Model

In Player files without Dashboards Specialized user interfaces that can be built into a Player file. Dashboards look like "control panels", with buttons, sliders and display panels, and provide a mechanism by which inputs to a model can be modified within the Player., and Dashboarded models that the author allows you to browse, you can explore the structure of the underlying GoldSim model from which the Player file was built.

In such a case, the GoldSim Player interface is almost identical to the interface you would see if you were running GoldSim itself. You can navigate through the model just as a GoldSim user would, moving between GoldSim Containers Objects within a GoldSim model that are analogous to folders, and are used to organize the model in a hierarchical manner., viewing property dialogs, and displaying results. Note, however, that you cannot edit the model in any way.

In order to navigate and explore the underlying GoldSim model, an understanding of some basic GoldSim concepts is required.
