Property types

Figure 22: Objects and their property types

Property types vary according to the selected object. In the above screenshot, a yellow rectangle is selected in the Scene, and its corresponding properties are displayed in the Object inspector.

Properties can be either Static or Dynamic. Static properties are set during the creation of the sketch (size, position, color...), and are not modified during animation. Dynamic properties are properties that are linked to values (result variables, post-processed variables or parameters). You can associate parameters from Simcenter Amesim with properties in the Dashboard, and then use the Dashboard to control those parameters (see Interactive signal input during simulation).
