The Options panel of the 2D Simulation tool sets simulation control, display, and report options. This panel includes the following controls:
Simulation Control — Sets the number of trials for the outer (uncertainty) simulation and inner (variability) simulation. The default number of outer trials is 50 and the default number of inner trials is the number you have set on the Trials tab of the Run Preferences dialog.
While Running — Specifies which forecasts to show while you are running the tool. You can view the forecasts according to the display setting for each chart, only the target forecast, or none of the forecasts.
Report Options — Includes statistics, percentiles, and capability metrics in reports. You can also specify how many simulations to include in accompanying output and overlay charts.
Back — Opens the Assumption Types panel for identifying uncertainty and variability assumptions.
Run — Runs the 2D Simulation tool if all required settings are complete.
