Have you noticed a new block in the Stateflow Library since R2012b? The MATLAB Chart block uses MATLAB as the action language for states and transitions in Stateflow. This means that you... read more >>

This week, after using Simulink R2012b for 6 months, I discovered a little something I find very useful. Closing Tabs I dig through models all day and I always end up with lots of open tabs. Up... read more >>

This week's post has been triggered by question recently posted on this blog regarding Masking and Variant Subsystems. If you look at this exchange I had with Xiaojun Yang, you will see that it... read more >>

Since I joined the technical support department at MathWorks, one of the questions I received the most often is: Can you make my model go faster? Over the years I gained experience with model... read more >>

Today I want to highlight R2012b features very useful when debugging a model. Using the simulation stepping and conditional breakpoints, you should be able to run your simulation up to a certain... read more >>

This week I want to share two new ways of resizing blocks in R2012b. Those might seem very minor, but I think they can be very useful. Keeping Ratio If you hold the Shift key while resizing a... read more >>
