Using lists

In a list, you can show all objects of a type together with a selection of the object's attributes (Opening lists):

  • You can display input attributes, e.g. for links these are the length, name, link behavior type, display type, etc. You can change input attributes in the list, e.g. when you create new network objects or make changes later on (Editing attributes of network objects), (Selecting and editing data in lists). This is not always possible during a simulation run. In this case, a corresponding message is displayed when you try to do so.
  • You can display attributes calculated from input attributes, e.g. a distance or travel time measurement. The values of these attributes cannot be changed in the list.
  • You can display result attributes, whose values are determined during a simulation run (Displaying result attributes in attribute lists). Result attributes can have subattributes, e.g. a different value per simulation run and time interval. The values of these attributes cannot be changed in the list.

There are two types of lists:

  • "Normal" attribute lists contain the attributes of network objects and base data. You can choose these lists from the Lists menu (Opening lists): A list contains a row for each object of the respective type, e.g. for a defined link. There is one column for each attribute, e.g. name or length of the link. There is also a column for each subattribute, e.g. time intervals or vehicle classes. "Normal" attribute lists can be extended to coupled lists, if the network object type has relations to other objects, e.g. a link to lanes (Using coupled lists).
  • To select result lists, on the Lists menu, click > Results or on the Evaluation menu, click > Result Lists (Configuring evaluations of the result attributes for lists): A results list contains rows for each object of the respective type per time interval of each simulation run. Moreover, you can show additional rows for static results: the mean, the standard deviation and minimum and maximum values of all simulation runs. You can further view the mean, the standard deviation, the minimum and maximum values and total of all time intervals. Only the subattributes Vehicle class or Pedestrian class are shown in the attribute columns.
