The Options tab of the Run Preferences dialog sets a variety of run preferences. For general instructions, see Setting Run Preferences.
The Options tab of the Run Preferences dialog has these settings:
Store assumption values for sensitivity analysis — Stores values randomly generated during the simulation for export to a spreadsheet using the Extract Data command. This setting also saves data for display in sensitivity charts (Using Sensitivity Charts). Sensitivity charts are not available unless you select this option before you run a simulation.
Enable correlations — Activates any defined correlations between assumptions.
Assume zeroes for unspecified correlations — When selected, inserts a zero in empty cells of a correlation matrix; otherwise, values are calculated from existing correlations.
Run user-defined macros — Runs any user-defined macros as part of the simulation process. For details, see Running User-Defined Macros.
Show control panel — When selected, activates the Crystal Ball Control Panel. For more information, see Crystal Ball Control Panel.
Leave control panel open on reset — When selected, continues to display the Control Panel after a simulation is reset.
Alerts level — Controls the display of warnings and other alerts, mostly reset prompts, at a global level:
Show all alerts — Displays all alerts.
Show only important alerts — Displays only warning alerts, not reset prompts.
Don't show any alerts — Does not display any alerts except those regarded as essential.
Do not show... checkboxes — When Reset is clicked, prompts to clear all selected Do not show again checkboxes in dialogs that offer that setting; Yes clears the checkboxes and dialogs are displayed again when appropriate.
Enable accessibility options — When selected, activates a number of user interface enhancements of special interest to individuals with visual impairments and other disabilities. For details, see the online Oracle Crystal Ball Accessibility Guide.
