2 Simulation Interface

The user can initiate a design simulation through a variety of functions upon logging into the simulation. These functions include:

  • Creating a new design
  • Opening a saved design within TIMSS
  • Importing a saved design from a .json file
  • Loading a reference design
GUID-20231114-SS0I-LQBT-DCRK-FTNXJNFPV1VD-low.svg Figure 2-1 Homepage Screen

Several navigation options are available from the Homepage screen (Figure 2-1). The main navigation drop-down menu is represented by three parallel lines located at the top left of the Homepage screen (Figure 2-2). This menu is visible at any stage of simulation and allows quick navigation to several helpful links.
