Schema SIMUL8XML.xsd

Below is the full SIMUL8 XML. However, you will probably find the easiest way to get started with understanding SIMUL8's XML is to do this: Create a small simulation in SIMUL8's normal user interface, then save it as an XS8 (xml) file, then open this file in NOTEPAD or IE. XML files are easy to read visually and because the raw XML relates to a small simulation you have created it's likely to be easier for you to understand. Change the simulation, re-save it and open another copy of the XML file in NOTEPAD and look to see what has changed. If you rename the files to TXT types you can open them in WORD and use its file-compare feature.
