After a simulation is complete, the model will be placed in Result Mode The state of a model when it has been run and contains simulation results for a single set of input parameters.. The status bar A bar at the bottom of the GoldSim interface that provides information regarding the status of the model. turns green and "Results" is displayed on the left side:

More importantly, editing the model will be disabled.

In addition, the cursor takes on a different appearance (it turns green).

When in Result Mode, elements with outputs that have been saved are identified in two ways: 1) the elements (and their outputs) are bold in the browser An alternative view of a GoldSim model, in which elements are displayed in a tree, and organized either hierarchically, or by type. (and output interfaces); and 2) the element output ports in the graphics pane The primary portion of the GoldSim interface, where the graphical depiction of the model is shown. are green.

When a model is in Result Mode, you can navigate it, open property dialogs, and view result plots. You can also move elements around within the graphics pane, add graphics (e.g., text, images), and add and edit result elements. You cannot, however, edit the model in any way that would change its behavior (e.g., you cannot change values in property dialogs or add or delete elements).

In Result Mode, the Run Control toolbar looks like this:

If you press F4, choose Run|Return to Edit Mode The state of a model when it is being edited and does not contain simulation results. from the file or press the first button from the left in the Run Control toolbar, the results will be discarded and the model will be returned to Edit Mode.
