The
SVB software is a Magsimus application. This refers to the fact that it
communicates with Magsimus to leverage its high-level CAD features and its
solution engine. The display window for a SVB device is in fact a specially
configured Magsimus System-Display
pane. Right-clicking anywhere in
this window displays a short-cut menu that allows additional interactive actions
to be carried out on the displayed design. Refer to chapter 7 of the Magsimus
user manual (found in the Magsimus Deluxe
program group) to learn more about these additional menus. Also right-clicking a
curve window displays a menu for saving the plotted data to file and for
modifying its display characteristics. These Magsimus windows can be moved and
re-sized. SVB “remembers” the Magsimus’ window dimensions between
invocations.
All
Magsimus applications (including the SVB software) use the same design file
format (.mus files). This means that
you can read in a file created with the SVB software into Magsimus, run a
calculation on it and obtain the exact same result as doing so with SVB.
However, the converse is not necessarily the case as the SVB software may modify
files that were not created with it, when it opens them.
