EverView

For best collaboration on a project everyone on your team shall be able to see the entire model-base at any time without any extra tools, installations and licensing issues. Furthermore, the model views shall be fast and user friendly. The models shall be displayed exactly the same way as the developers wanted the models to look like. And you shall be able to comment such model views in a distributed way and then merge all the relevant comments.

Annotations in EverView

We do not provide an extra tool for that. No. We provide an easy to use EverTest feature that generates a Simulink view - EverView® - in a single HTML file which feels exactly like your Simulink model. No extra tools, no extra installations and no extra license costs are required after EverView generation. A regular web browser is sufficient to view the models and to comment in them. Even the data plots from signal builder and look-up tables are integrated! You can now freely view, search and comment in the model hierarchy.

EverView Features

  • EverView generation is a feature of EverTest
  • The generated EverView report is free from any license dependences
  • Off-line inspections and annotations in a regular web browser
  • Graphical user experience exactly like in your Simulink or Stateflow model
  • Native navigation capability to go up and down in all subsystem and chart levels
  • Exact display of all model characteristics including types, dimensions and colors
  • Graphical display of lookup tables and test-cases in the signal builder
  • Model tree representation of the exported model hierarchically
  • Customizable restriction of exporting depth for protected model parts
  • Adding, saving and merging of custom review annotations

Basic System Requirements:

  • Open EverView in any web browser of your choice.

Pricing and Licensing:

  • No license required after EverView generation.
