Output Bar
The Output Bar provides feedback on your activities within LEGION Model Builder. It has three tabs:
Each tab of the Output Bar retains its information when you click on another tab.
Information
This portion of the Output Bar displays a history of previous commands and sometimes prompts you to perform certain steps. It also has a Command Bar into which you can type certain commands in order perform Model Builder tasks including selecting, placing and editing objects. For a full list of commands see the "Appendix: LEGION Simulator".
Right-click on the ‘Information’ tab for menu options to Clear or Copy its contents. Copying the contents of the Output Bar is useful when you want to keep a record of recent actions.
Auto-complete commands
When you begin to type a command into the Command bar, it suggests available commands based on the letters you type. As you type, a pop-up list of commands is displayed, from which you can select.
For example, typing ‘c’ will pop-up the following list of available commands:
When the correct command is highlighted in the Command bar, press the Enter key to run it. You may also double-click any command from the list to run it.
If you continue to type, the list will recompose itself, filtering the available commands according to the letters you type. For example, typing an ‘o’ after the ‘c’ will reduce the list to the following available commands: ‘copy’, ‘copy geometry’ and ‘copy to layer’.
QA
This stands for Quality Assurance and displays the results when you check your model for errors during the course of building or just before exporting the LEGION Model File for simulation. For further information, see Checking for errors .
Search Results
This tab displays any relevant results when you search for objects using the Find tool. Results are listed by object and type.
Right-click on one or more listed objects for the options to Edit Properties or Select Object(s).
To create more space, you can choose to ‘Auto Hide’ the Output Bar: just click on the small ‘push-pin’ icon next to its name. This will hide it until you click on its still-visible name tab. To turn off ‘Auto Hide’, click the push-pin icon again.
