Managing Analyzer Scripts

The Execution Analyzer window enables you to manage all Analyzer scripts in the model. You use the window toolbar buttons or script context menu options to control script tasks. Scripts are listed by package; the list only shows packages that have Analyzer scripts defined against them.

Each user can activate one script at any time, independent of other users of the same model; one user activating a script does not impact the currently active scripts for other users or affect the scripts available to them.
