What is XSimComposer?

XSimComposer provides an interface that allows you to edit and validate your simulation input files, run XSim simulations, and visualize results using the VisIt-based Visualization pane embedded within XSimComposer. You can also edit XSim input files in the text editor of your choice, perform calculations with the easy-to-run, command-line-driven Vorpal engine, and then run the visualization tool of your choice.

Note

Look and Feel Differences

XSim runs on Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows. Each of these platforms has its own unique look and feel (e.g. the ordering of buttons in dialogs, and in the case of Mac OS X the arrangement of menus and menu items). Furthermore, the appearance of XSim can vary depending on the theme being used.

Given these differences and that screenshots may not always be of the most recent release, please note that screenshots shown in this manual may look different from the XSim that you see running on your own computers. XSim should function the same, but if you look for a particular toolbar or button, it may not be in same place in your copy of XSim.
