Syntax

visualize(cmb,state,modelName)

Description

visualize(cmb,state,modelName) opens the Multibody Explorer to display the 3-D graphical representation of the compiled multibody system, cmb, in the given state, state.

If the Multibody Explorer is already open and you call the visualize method with the same model name, it updates the existing model in the Multibody Explorer. However, if you call the visualize method with a different model name, it opens a new instance of the Multibody Explorer to display the updated compiled multibody system.

If the given state has a status other than simscape.multibody.StateStatus.Valid, you can still use the visualize method to view the compiled multibody system, although some of the kinematic loops in the system may not be closed.
