Sets the various parameters for vehicle simulations.

• To set the global parameters for vehicle simulations, on the Simulation Tools toolbar, click Simulation Display Settings.
• To modify the properties that determine how the current vehicle simulation is drawn, pick to select the desired simulation, then right-click it, and then, on the shortcut menu, click Properties.

Note: Changes made to the properties of the current simulation do not affect the global parameters.

Simulation Display Settings Dialog Box Explained

General Category

Note: This category is only available when the global parameters are being set by clicking Simulation Display Settings on the Simulation Tools toolbar.

Set the color for the AutoTURN Online drafting tools and vehicle profile (see General Toolbar Overview and Place Vehicle Profile in Drawing respectively). To change the size of the vehicle profile to be placed in the drawing, click the desired percentage value in the Vehicle Profile Scale list.

Path Category

Select which elements to draw and set the color for the elements that are drawn.

Vehicles Category

Select which elements to display/draw and set the color for the elements that are drawn.

Envelopes Category

Select which elements to draw and set the color for the elements that are drawn. You may also specify the front, rear, and body clearance distances to have the simulation drawn with envelopes generated at the distances offset from where they would normally be drawn.

Bundles Category

Select which vehicles are available for use in AutoTURN Online. Note that reducing the number of vehicles will simplify and accelerate the vehicle selection process.
