This table summarizes what's new in Version 3.7 (R2009b):
| New Features and Changes | Version Compatibility Considerations | Fixed Bugs and Known Problems |
|---|---|---|
| Yes Details below | Details labeled as Compatibility Considerations, below. See also Summary | Bug
Reports Includes fixes |
New features and changes introduced in this version are:
Goto and From Block Information Added to Simulink Summary Table
Improved Images in Word and RTF Reports on Windows Platforms
Required Products Information for MATLAB/Toolbox Version Number Component
Block Summary Table Link to Data Object Property Information
From the Simulink Model Editor, you can access a new System Design Description report. The report provides summary or detailed information about the system design represented by a model. You can specify report options using the report dialog box, or you can create a customized version of the report using the Report Explorer. For details, see Generate System Design Description Reports.
For looping components, you can sort blocks based on how the blocks are arranged in the model or chart. The two new sort blocks options are: By layout (left to right) and By layout (top to bottom). These options reflect the model or chart layout horizontally across rows or vertically down columns.
The components with these new block sorting options are:
The new Compile model to report on compiled information report output option ensures that a report reflects compiled values for Simulink parameters. For details, see Report Explorer Report Options in the Simulink Report Generator documentation.
New components that support the Requirements Management Interface are:
Missing Requirements Block Loop — Apply all child components to blocks that do not have requirements
Missing Requirements System Loop — Loop only on systems and subsystems that do not have associated requirements
Requirements Documents Table — Insert table of linked requirements documents
Requirements Signal Loop — Run child components for each signal with requirements in current system, model, or block
The Simulink Summary Table component now reports additional information about Goto and From blocks.
For Goto block properties, the new columns are:
From Blk — Name of the From block connected to the Goto block; this name links to that block's properties information in the report
From Blk Location — Path to From block location in the model
For From block properties, the new columns are:
Goto Blk Name — Name of the Goto block connected to the From block; this name links to that block's properties information in the report
Goto Blk Location — Path to Goto block location in the model
If a Goto or From block is not connected to a corresponding From or Goto block, you see "Unconnected" in the Goto or From block name and location columns.
To provide better graphics quality in reports using the Word document format or RTF (Rich Text format) on Windows® platforms, the default format for Handle Graphics®, Simulink, and Stateflow images is now Windows metafile format (the default was black and white TIFF).
You can control the image format using the MATLAB preferences or the Simulink Report Generator Preferences, or from snapshot components such as the Axes Snapshot component.
To change the image format back to the previous default of black and white TIFF, change the preferences.
The MATLAB/Toolbox Version Number component now supports options to display information based on whether a Simulink model or Stateflow chart requires a MathWorks product.
For Simulink data object variables, in the Block Summary table, the block variables column (third column) now provides a link from the variable name to the Simulink Functions and Variables table row for that variable. The Model Variables table includes information about the data object, such as the data type and the minimum and maximum values.
The Image file format options for these components no longer include Adobe® Illustrator:
Look-Up Table
Scope Snapshot
Stateflow Dialog Snapshot
Stateflow Snapshot
System Snapshot
To Workspace Plot
If you wish to integrate a Simulink Report Generator image into Adobe Illustrator, specify a image file format supported by Adobe Illustrator, such as PDF, and then open the image file in Adobe Illustrator.
The XML comparison report has new navigation controls to step through differences in the report. You can use the toolbar buttons or the XML menu to move to the next or previous group of changes. As you step through selected changes in the report, Simulink Report Generator can highlight the corresponding items in the original models.
Other usability improvements in the report include:
Enhanced XML comparison algorithm with reduced memory consumption
Improved matching results for many types of Simulink blocks and Stateflow elements
Ability to filter out nonfunctional differences in the comparison result
Simplified toolbar and XML menu
For details, see Explore the XML Comparison Report in the Simulink Report Generator User's Guide.
