Lock view in simulator

Post by WingNut »

This may already be a feature so pardon me in advance. When simulating long flowchart it would be nice to lock the particular macro you are interested in. i.e. keep viewing only that macro

Thanks for the suggestion. I don't know if this helps, but if you drag the macro you want to keep viewing out of the main window and into its own window, then this should allow you to keep viewing it. Also, if you run with the simulation speed in the 2 fastest settings, the view will not switch to the current position of program execution.

Hello,

To do what Steve suggests take the tab of the macro your interested in, click and drag it over to the right hand side of the flowchart window. It should then create a blue highlight over half of the flowchart window and when you release the mouse the macro will be shown in the highlighted area.

Hope this helps.
