You can open the 4D simulation settings by clicking the settings button at the bottom of the 4D simulation toolbox. There are many different settings that apply to 4D simulation. Some settings are organized into tabs whereas others are displayed in the 4D schedule by default. |  | ||||||||||||
The Simulation Speed slider sets the speed of your simulation. it is directly associated with the other slider in Time Controls. | The Task Font setting allows the user to change the font size of the text in the Task Table. |  | |||||||||||
The Auto Fill Duration checkbox ensures that the duration reflects the difference between the planned start and end. The Manually Schedule Tasks checkbox allows predecessor relationships and task constraints to be violated. | |||||||||||||
The Fix Sun Position checkbox disables changing the sun position with respect to the time of day. The Hide Assigned Objects checkbox hides assigned objects. The Cross-Section Fill check box stops your objects from appearing hollow when sliding in. The Show Staging Pins checkbox toggles visibility of staging pins. The Show Predecessor Lines checkbox toggles displaying of predecessor links. The Auto-Scroll Gantt Chart checkbox toggles whether the schedule date and Gantt chart scroll when a task is activated. A task is activated when selected and when it’s start date is reached during playback. The Auto-Calculate WBS Dates checkbox ensures that parent durations include the duration of all of their children. The Auto-change font color checkbox toggles whether tasks with light background colors are displayed with black text rather than white. |  | ||||||||||||

The Exclude WBS from Sorting checkbox retains WBS when sorting by columns. The Link Planned and Remaining checkbox toggles whether remaining durations are dependent on Planned durations. | |||||||
The Show Time of Day for Date checkbox toggles whether the time of day is displayed in the task table. The Constraints Override Links checkbox toggles whether a constraint or a task link has a higher priority when evaluating task durations. The Update Progress with Data Date checkbox toggles whether the remaining schedule is updated with the changing of the data date. |  | ||||||
The Scale Micro Task Duration checkbox toggles whether micro task durations are updated as well as start and end dates when using Task Linking. the Enable Overlapping Animation Setting toggles whether overlapping animations occur when the same objects are assigned to multiple tasks. | |||||||
The Task Progress Mode dropdown menu controls how logic links are handled when a predecessor has been completed before their associated logic allows. This setting behaves like the out of sequence progress setting in P6. |  | ||||||
The Total Float/Slack Calculation drop down menu controls how the Total Float of a given task is calculated. Start Float subtracts the Early Start from the Late Start, Finish Float subtracts the Early Start from the Late Finish. The last option uses the smallest of the two. |  | ||||||
The Calculate Link Lag Using drop down menu specifies which calendar is used to calculate the link lag of a given predecessor relationship. The length of the lag does not count non-working days. | |||||||
The Task Type radio button sets the task color based on its task type or highlight color. The Task State radio button colors tasks based on their status at the current day. |  | ||||||
The Emulation Mode radio buttons ensure that Fuzor handles your imported schedule properly. If using Microsoft Project or Primavera P6 make sure the associated radio button is selected. | |||||||
The FZM Export settings control how task filters and subcontractor filters effect what tasks and objects are visible in the Mobile Project. |  | ||||||
