Engee documentation

What’s new in 24.1.0

Date of the release: January 2024

New features and significant changes

New version system

Don’t be surprised: we’ve changed the versioning system. Engee. As you probably guessed, the first digit will mean the year of the release, and the second — the month. It will be more convenient for you (and us).

Browser multi-window support

Now at startup Engee The content will be synchronized in different browser windows. This means that you can fully use the environment in different windows on different displays, for example.

Status and reboot of the computing core

Added the ability to check the status of the computing core Engee and restart it manually if it doesn’t respond. This functionality is located in the feedback menu (we affectionately call it «The bug»).

Window indication when resizing

To let you know exactly which interface window will change in size, we have added a special frame that will highlight the window being resized.

Mathematical Computing environment

Storing third-party libraries

Previously, users had to reinstall libraries that were not included in the standard configuration every time. Engee. Now it’s enough to install them once in a user folder and just call them if necessary.

Major updates in programming language documentation articles Engee

We have updated the main Julia documentation to version Julia 1.9.3, added documentation in Russian for a large list of third-party libraries (you will find the full list below), and also added a number of articles in the original language. We are sure that now it will be easier for you to find the necessary information about the programming language.

A mechanism for determining the address of the current interactive script

We have implemented a macro for you that returns the path of the current interactive script. You can apply @DIR in the editor or command line, for example, to unlink a script from its current Path and use it in an arbitrary directory. For example, like this:

Exporting an interactive script to PDF

We have added the ability to export scripts to PDF format for publications, reporting, or inclusion in scientific and technical documentation.

New functions in the Variable editor

The matrix editor in the variables window has been seriously improved. Now you can select multiple cells and perform various operations with them (cut, copy, paste), including operations with external files and environments. You can also combine multiple columns or rows and perform operations with them. In addition, the ability to change the width of the columns has been added.

A path management application

In the release 0.12.0 we have added the ability to add folders and subfolders to the Path and delete them from it. In the new release, as a follow-up to the theme, we are introducing a custom application for more convenient representation and management of Paths.

Synchronization of file browser and terminal paths

Fixed a long-standing inconvenience and synchronized the paths of the file browser and the command line. Now you can immediately work with data and functions from CS without having to switch to another directory.

The modeling environment

Annotations of models and blocks

We have implemented a feature that many have asked for — annotations for models and blocks. You can add the required text to the canvas, format it, and connect it to blocks as needed.

Model Callbacks

Another long—awaited functionality is callbacks. Now you can perform special calls for certain actions on the model, for example, perform loading and initialization functions to declare model parameters or automate actions to process the results.

Setting the parameters of blocks and models using custom code

Now you can use custom functions in the form of code to set parameters for model blocks. For the sine block, these parameters can be changed. «on the fly».

Improvements to physical modeling

  • Added support for units of measurement in physical components.

  • Solver Configuration has been made more user-friendly, and a set of experimental flexible settings for numerical methods has been introduced.

Context menu via PCM for the Graphics module

Added a context menu by pressing the PCM for the Charts window.

Semi-natural modeling

Improved integration Engee with a complex of semi-natural RITM modeling:

The RITM app has been updated.Machine management

The RITM app.Machine Management now contains a service message panel at the bottom. This panel displays service and status messages for the user.

We support the launch of models Engee On the beat

Models Engee now you can run on the RITM by pressing a single button.

To start in independent mode, use the Start in Independent mode button.:

image10

To launch in interactive mode, use the Launch the model on hardware button.:

More information about the operating modes of the model is available on the page Model execution modes.

We support the transmission of signals from the RITM to the charts Engee

When running the model interactively, the signals selected for recording are now displayed in graphs. Engee:

image17

We support interactive change of block parameters when the model is running on the RITM.

Blocks that support changing parameters on the fly during simulation now also support this option while the model is running on the RITM in interactive mode.:

Code generation

Added support for C code generation for the following blocks:


Personal account

Launch Engee based on resource settings

The user launches the product Engee with the resources (computing cores, memory, processors) that are allocated to him in his personal account.
