BlockSim 7 Work Environment
Intuitive and Flexible Work Center for System Modeling and Analysis

The BlockSim 7 interface is an intuitive, flexible and highly integrated work center that uses a hierarchically structured Project Explorer to manage a collection of diagrams, plots, templates, custom analysis spreadsheets and other resources -- all together in a single file. The software incorporates many features designed to save time, ensure consistency and facilitate data management, including:

Templates allow you to create and manage sets of pre-defined blocks that are available to be used in multiple diagrams. Simply drag and drop the template block into any diagram to create a new block with all of the predefined characteristics set automatically. This feature can also be used to quickly perform global updates for component properties within your projects.

Import and Export Windows make it easy to transfer selected diagrams, templates, spreadsheets and other resources among projects.

Attachments are available both at the project level and for individual blocks. It’s easy to save and edit supplementary files together with any analysis.

Item Properties Table saves you from having to open each block or policy individually by allowing you to view and edit the characteristics via a single interface using a familiar worksheet format.

Resource Usage Window provides an at-a-glance summary of where specific resources are used within a project and makes it easy to remove unused resources, if desired. New in Version 7!
