Is there a programatic way to determine if the model workspace is dirty, which is indicated by an asterisk next to "Model Workspace" in the model explorer?

To determine if the model is dirty:
This means a model has changes that are unsaved.
x = get_param( gcs, 'ModelWorkspace' )
x.isDirty
or
bdIsDirty( gcs )
or
isDirtyOff = strcmp( get_param( gcs, 'Dirty' ), 'off' )
or
isDirtyOn = strcmp( get_param( gcs, 'Dirty' ), 'on' )
To set the dirty bit:
This will trick Simulink to think there are changes that are unsaved.
examples:
- if you want to save a changed view when there has been no material changes to the model; or
- you opened or closed some tabs and want to save that change in state when there has been no other material changes to the model.
x = get_param( gcs, 'ModelWorkspace' )
x.isDirty = 1;
or
set_param( gcs, 'Dirty', 'on' )
To save the model:
save_system( gcs )
To close the model:
close_system( gcs )
To save and close the model:
close_system( gcs, 1 )
