With a Task tab active in Robotmaster, the scheduler at the bottom of the screen can be used to simulate tool paths in the task.
On the task side, the time for each operation in the scheduler is calculated based on path length, speeds, and other parameters set in the operation. Device-related information is not accounted for in the task side scheduler.
The timeline shows each operation sequentially, matching the order in the task Operations panel.
Playhead
The playhead indicates the current position in the simulation. It can be dragged to any position in the timeline.

Zoom controls
Fit the entire timeline into view. | |
Slide to change timeline zoom level. You can also use CTRL + mouse wheel on top of the timeline to zoom in and out. |
Playback speed
