This is a brief example of using the rerun program and the 3D capabilities within Rappture. In this example, the file 3d_test_run.xml is a run file generated by the Rappture GUI some time ago from a tool called Prophet. For more information on Prophet check out http://www.nanohub.org/simulation_tools/prophet_tool_information To use the rerun program type % rerun 3d_test_run.xml Since rerun's purpose is to revisualize data from previously run input, changing the simulation parameters will not effect the data that will be displayed in the rerun simulator. Therefore you should proceed in clicking the "Simulate" button to see the stored graphs, outputs, and data.
