Application menus are divided into groups as displayed below. When IDE is first opened, only File, Log and Help menus groups are displayed. Other menu groups will appear after a model is opened.

As you hover mouse over the menus, the list of menu items is displayed in the drop-down list. To hide the menu item list, just move the mouse away from the menu item list.

File menu contains menu items performing actions at the model level. For example creating new model, close model, import a model, etc. Not all menu items are visible at all time. For example, Save menu item is not visible unless a model is open.

You may open multiple models at the same time but only one model can be displaye in IDE. The menu Session lists all models currently open and allows you to switch to any of the model sessions. Sessions are labeled Session n where n is the sequence number. Session n menu item also has a hover message to help you identify which model is open by the session.

• Session n - switches to the specific model session.

Log files are important for debugging problems. TestOptimal maintains several log files which capture different types of log messages produced by the system, IDE as well as your model. These log files are stored in folder www/MbtSvr/log. You can access these log files directly from this menu as described below:

• Console Log - opens Console Log in a separate browser window/tab.
