It is not possible to have ports on the four sides of a block simultaneously. Similarly it is not possible to nudge them a bit up or down. If your license is under maintenance, I suggest contacting The Mathworks technical support, ask for this capability and explain why this is important for you. @Marcelo, it is only possible to place ports either left-right or up-down by rotating the block.

However, I have another question I faced myself with when programming a simulink block. How can I place a port (input or output) at the bottom or at the top of the simulink block, or even nudge them a bit up or down? I look forward to hearing from you. Cheers, Marcelo Hello Seth,

Good luck. @Dziki – Those initial conditions are “IC” blocks from the Signal Attributes library. Good luck.

I can not find such block in simulink liblary! Teanks You Dziki Hi

How can I made blocks “initial volocity” and “initial position” in matlab simulink R14?

I typically use parameters with scope ExternGlobal for this. The drawback is that, with lots of integrators, the workspace gets cluttered up. Maybe eventually the Mathworks will support Matlab structure elements as fully tunable parameters in generated code and model references without resorting to the C-API.

Is it necessary to rest the position integral in the bouncing ball demo? I get same result without reset the integral and set the internal initial condition to 10. Hi Seth!
