Group as class object in 17?

Hi Guys,

Just testing version 17 a bit further and I wonder, shouldn't their be a class for a Group, similar to that of table?

so that we could do

Group operators = refgroups("xxx");

Object operator = operators.members[1];

or something along these lines?

Software Version:

FlexSim 17.0.0

class groups

Steven,

Yes, there are still a lot of classes that we did not put into the 2017 release. These will hopefully get into the next release. Possible classes would be:

Classes associated with library objects (Processors, Racks, Conveyors, AGVs, etc.)
Tracked Variables
Kinematics
Task Sequences
Groups
Lists

For the 2017 release we just wanted to get the core functionality in, along with a few primary classes associated with the different facets of FlexSim. Making the first release more minimalist allows us breathing room to make the best design of those follow-on classes, and allows us to get more user feedback like yours.
