An example of the use of several families would be if the user wished to produce<br />

both a gain schedule, and a check for robustness of the system. The gain schedule would<br />

be comprised of several cases, their velocities differing slightly. Several cases for the<br />

robustness check would be created by perturbing the stability derivatives. The gain<br />

schedule cases would be kept in one family, while the robustness cases would be kept in<br />

another. Thus, the results of the two could be analyzed separately, and the problem<br />

becomes very clear and organized.<br />

The Family Area is also persistent in all aspects of the <strong>Batch</strong> GUI. In all modes,<br />

clicking on a cell in the Family Area will display the appropriate cases in the Case<br />

Number Area, as well as the data pertinent to the current family in the Display Area. In<br />

Setup <strong>Mode</strong>, the name of the family can be changed by selecting the family, and then<br />

clicking on it again to edit it.<br />

The remainder of the Setup <strong>Mode</strong> GUI sections are much more straightforward.<br />

The File Menu resides at the top of the <strong>Batch</strong> <strong>Mode</strong> GUI, and it behaves in the same way<br />

as any conventional pull-down menu. It contains some of the commands used less<br />

frequently, thus freeing up space on the remainder of the GUI. Currently, only Setup<br />

<strong>Mode</strong> commands are listed in the menu. Three pull-down menus are available: File, Edit,<br />

and Insert.<br />
