The New Scenario Wizard dialog is designed to help streamline the process of creating, saving, and organizing scenario files.
Name - STK automatically inserts a default name into the Name field. Replace the default scenario name if desired. The scenario will be saved in a directory with this name, and all associated scenario files will also include this name by default unless changed by the user when saving.
Description - Add a description of the scenario. Once the scenario is saved, this information becomes the scenario's long description and will appear in the Open File dialog when the scenario file is selected.
Location - This field displays the default
location where the directory, scenario, and associated files will
be created when the scenario is saved. Click
to browse to the location where the scenario is to be
saved. It will remain the default location until changed by
browsing to another location using the browse button.
Analysis Period - Set the start and stop times
of the analysis period of the scenario. Click the units icon
(
) to display a drop-down menu of available
time formats. STK will automatically set the scenario Epoch time to
the same time as the analysis period start time. The Epoch time can
be changed in the Time panel of the Basic section of the Scenario Properties
Browser.
Central Body - The Central Body drop-down menu appears when View > Planetary Options is selected from the menu bar. Select from the list of planets to designate the scenario's primary central body. Earth is STK's default primary central body.
Select the "Do not show me this again" check box to prevent the New Scenario Wizard window from appearing when creating new scenarios. The window can be activated again by selecting Edit > Preferences... from the Menu Bar and selecting the check box in the Behavior section of the General Preferences dialog that says: 'Use "New Scenario" wizard when creating Scenarios'.
You can also use New and Open on the File menu to create a new scenario or open an existing scenario.
