JaamSim 2015-09 released

[Harry King]

Changes in this release:

• Graph works with expressions. The keywords DataSource and SecondaryDataSource can now accept expressions as inputs. New keywords UnitType and SecondaryUnitType are added to specify the units to be used for the primary and secondary y-axes. Graph is backwards compatible with the old format, e.g. { Entity1 Output1 } { Entity2 Output2 }, and for this format it is not necessary to specify the UnitType or SecondaryUnitType keywords. However, this will be an undocumented feature, and it would be best to convert these inputs to the new format: { [Entity1].Output1 } { [Entity2].Output2 } and set the UnitType input. You can also enter constants and any object that returns a number such as a TimeSeries, a ProbabilityDistribution, or a Calculation, as long as all the entries have the same unit type, e.g. { 1 m } { [Entity1].Output1 } { TimeSeries1 }.
  
• Unnecessary prompts to save are suppressed. A number of common interactions with the model will no longer trigger a prompt to save your model. Any changes will continue to be saved with the model, but you won't be prompted to do so. The interactions in question are setting real time mode, changing the speedup factor, setting a pause time, opening/closing the Model Builder, Input Editor, etc., opening or closing a view window, or panning, zooming, etc. within a view window.
• SetGraphic object no longer changes the DisplayModel input. The SetGraphic object has been modified so that it does not change the input for the DisplayModel keyword. Formerly, this would prevent the model graphics from resetting correctly on restart and would trigger a prompt to save your changes when the model is closed.

Nice, especially the Save prompts.  I'll test.

2015-09 passed all my regression tests relative to version 2015-08.

Save prompts are much less aggressive and more appropriate to when a user would want to save.  All model results are unchanged.

Good job!
