3848	Feature Request: Visualization of Simulation Results in Model View	stephan.fevrier@…	somebody	"The OpenModelica Plotting module is a very convenient tool for analyzing specific variables' individual behaviour. For understanding overall system behaviour and relationships however, a modeling engineer would also like being able to display a multitude of instantaneous variable values concurrently on the Diagram View of a model, being able to navigate through the simulation results with a Time control element.
The attached photoshopped screen shows how such a visualization could look like. It shows monitoring elements for certain variables on the model diagram, and a slider control to browse through the simulation time to see how the monitored variable values change as a function of time. The variable monitors could for instance be added by the modeler as a new annotation element, or alternatively instantiated as components from a new Sensor class and placed on the desired Diagram locations.
With such an interactive model view, a user could display instantaneous temperatures, pressures and signal values at different locations of his diagram, much like on the SCADA HMI screens in a power plant control room. By play-back of the simulation results over time, he could for instance see how a medium temperature change travels from component to component through the modeled system.
