tick-advance4.0

tick-advance number

Advances the tick counter by number. The input may be an integer or a floating point number. (Some models divide ticks more finely than by ones.) The input may not be negative.

When using tick-based view updates, the view is normally updated every 1.0 ticks, so using tick-advance with a number less then 1.0 may not always trigger an update. If you want to make sure that the view is updated, you can use the display command.

If the tick counter has not been started yet with reset-ticks, an error results.

Does not update plots.
