The Flowchart tab is visible when you are working with a RENO flowchart.
For all blocks, you set the block properties in the Block Properties window.

block to the current flowchart.
Add Result
Storage adds a new result storage
block to the current flowchart.
Add Conditional
Block adds a new conditional
block to the current flowchart.
Add Binary
Node adds a new binary node to the
current flowchart.
Add Logic Gate adds
a new logic gate to the current flowchart.
Add Branch

to the current flowchart.
Add Summing

to the current flowchart.
Add Flag Marker adds
a new flag marker to the current flowchart.
Add GoTo Flag adds
a new go-to-flag block to the current flowchart.
Add Counter

to the current flowchart.
Add Reset Block adds
a new reset block to the current flowchart.
Add Stop Flag adds
a new stop flag to the current flowchart.
Add UI Block adds
a new UI block to the current flowchart.
Add Subchart adds
a new subchart block to the current
flowchart. When this menu item is selected, the Select Diagram for the
Block window will appear, which allows you to select a flowchart that
exists in the current project to be represented by the subchart block.
Auto Arrange
automatically arranges the blocks in the diagram so that all blocks are
evenly spaced and centered.
Auto Fit Width
automatically arranges the blocks in the diagram to fit the width of the
diagram window.
Connect Blocks
allows you to create connectors between blocks in the current diagram.
When this command is selected, click the source block, hold down the left
mouse button and drag a line from the source block to the destination
block. When the crosshairs are located above the destination block, release
the mouse button to create a connector. To stop adding connectors and
return to the normal mode, right-click the diagram or clear the Connect Blocks option (i.e., by
choosing the command again).
Add Annotation
adds a new annotation to the current diagram. You can edit the text that
appears in the annotation by double-clicking it to open the Edit Annotation
window.
Block Properties opens
the Block Properties window, which
allows you to define the failure, maintenance, optimization, throughput
and other characteristics of the selected block. If an annotation is selected,
this command opens the Edit Annotation window, which allows you to edit
the text for the annotation.
Set Block Flag
allows you to display or remove a red, yellow or green flag above the
selected block. These flags have no effect on the analysis or simulation
so you can use them for any purpose of interest to you. For example, each
flag color could represent a level of analysis that has been completed.
Remove Flag removes the flag from the selected block.
Red Flag displays a red flag for the selected block.
Yellow Flag displays a yellow flag for the selected block.
Green Flag displays a green flag for the selected block.
Diagram Actions
Refresh Diagram updates the diagram to show any changes.
Diagram Style opens the Diagram Style window, which allows you to edit the appearance of the diagram.
Open Flowchart opens the flowchart that the selected subchart block represents. This option is only available when a subchart block is selected.
Open Parent Diagram opens a sub-menu that allows you to select a parent flowchart (i.e., a flowchart that contains a subchart block representing the current flowchart) to open.
Export Graphic saves the diagram as a graphic in one of the following formats: *.wmf, *.png, *.gif or *.jpg. You will be able to use the exported graphic in any application, provided that the application supports the file format.
Cascade Select
selects all the blocks that are connected from the selected block, including
the selected block itself. This allows you to easily select all blocks
that are connected to a block.
Trace Path
traces the path of the selected block. Click another block or the diagram
to remove the traced path. The color of the traced path is the same as
the color for a selected connector and can be set in the Diagram
Style window.
Connector Priority
allows you to change the order of execution of outgoing paths from a block.
Note that you can display connector priorities by selecting the Show Connection Priorities check
box in the diagram's control panel.
