Creating a Profile

On the Model Library, on the Tools tab, drag a Profile onto the Canvas to automatically create a new Profile.

After you create the Profile, it appears in the Simulation Manager as Profile1 if it is the first Profile to be added to the simulation.

Opening a Profile

On the Canvas, double-click the Profile to view it.

Alternatively, in the Simulation Manager, right-click the Profile, and then select View.

Opening the configuration area for a Profile

On the Canvas or the Simulation Manager, right-click the Profile, and then select Full Properties. The Profile appears with an expanded configuration area.

Alternatively, open the Profile and then select Expand the configuration section at the lower right corner of the Profile to expand the configuration area.

Copying and pasting a Profile

In the Simulation Manager, right-click the Profile and then select Copy. Right-click the Main flowsheet for your simulation and then select Paste.

Alternatively, on the Canvas, right-click the Profile and then select Copy. Right-click the Canvas and then select Paste.This creates a new Profile on the Canvas and in the Simulation Manager, not another instance of the copied Profile on the Canvas.

Renaming a Profile

In the Simulation Manager, select the Profile's name, enter a new name, and press Enter.

Alternatively, on the Canvas, double-click the name of the Profile, enter a new name, and then press Enter.

Creating another instance of an existing Profile on the Canvas

Drag the Profile from the Simulation Manager onto the Canvas.

Deleting a Profile

In the Simulation Manager, right-click the Profile, and then select Delete.

Alternatively, on the Canvas, right-click the Profile, and then select Delete. Select Delete All to delete the corresponding Profile and all of its instances on the Canvas.

Deleting an instance of a Profile from the Canvas

On the Canvas, right-click the Profile, and then select Delete. Select Just This to delete only this instance of the Profile on the Canvas. The Profile still exists in the Simulation Manager and all the other instances of the Profile on the Canvas remain unchanged.
