A list of key new features since System Modeler 4.2.

Collaboration

• Easy sharing of complete models, including all dependencies (libraries, shapes, tables, code, etc.).

• Package models with model plots, which will immediately be shown when simulating.

Simulation

• Ability to create and use model plots in Simulation Center.

• Support for custom units for plots and parameters in Simulation Center.

• Explicit indications given when parameter values cannot be changed.

• Improved model compilation speed for large models of up to 40%.

Modeling

• Documentation now includes complete listing of example uses for each component.

• Improved diagram editor, making it easy to add points to connection lines for neat model diagrams.

• The diagram editor now automatically brings up color, file and port picker dialogs when appropriate.

• Complete coverage of all Modelica syntactical errors, with detailed diagnostics.

Documentation

• System Modeler educational and industry examples are now bundled with the product.

• All System Modeler examples have been updated with model plots for immediate use.

• Updated Modelica by Example book.

Wolfram Language Integration

• Create and use model plots.

• Ability to drill down into model diagrams for components.

• Support for parallel simulation over different inputs to the model.

• Performance improvement for model simulation (roughly twice).

• Performance improvement for model diagram drawing (roughly twice).

• New summary property for model and simulation data.

• New documentation property for model data, making documentation instantly available.

• Support for import and export of CombiTimeTable, the data storage format used by Modelica.

• Improved feedback for simulation commands when changing parameters and initial values.
