Visual Scripting
Visual Scripting in SimLab Composer is a tool created to minimize the programming effort for non-technical users with no coding skills. Therefore, instead of writing the computer code in a text editor, the Visual Scripting tool allows the user to develop her\his desired programs via block diagrams using a graphical user interface. This makes the code easier to be written as well as to be understood: Any designer, artist or animator reading the diagrams can quickly grasp the flow of logic therein.
Getting Started
Select Visual Scripting from the automation workbench, the window shown below will appear with the following main parts:
1) Options forto ‘Run’ the existing flow, ‘Create’ a new flow, ‘Open’ or ‘Save’ flows.
2) The ‘Main Object Groups Bar’,Bar, which includes the category titles of all the available sources and functions.
3) For each ‘Object Group’,Group, corresponding ‘Sources’ and ‘Functions’ are available.
4) The ‘Work Space’, where blocks can be dragged, dropped and linked to create the desired flow charts.
