Menus
File
Open: Open a network file.
Save: Save a network file.
Save-as: Save a network file with a new, user-specified name.
Edit Update Sequence: TODO
Network Preferences: Open Network Preferences.Cut: Cut selected network elements (nodes and weights) to buffer.
Copy: Copy selected network elements (nodes and weights) to buffer.
Paste: Paste network elements in buffer to screen.
Delete: Deletes selected screen items.
Clear Source Neurons: Deselect neurons that are set as source neurons.
Set Source Neurons: Set the selected neurons as source neurons.
Connect Neurons: Link neurons together as a connection.
Connect Neurons Group with Synapse Group: Connect source and target neurons with a synpase group.
Randomize Selection: Assign random values to neurons.
Show Synapse Adjustment Dialog: Bring to front of synapse's adjustment dialog.
Layout: Align neurons to a specific layout. See Neuron Layouts for list of layout options.
Group: Set selected neurons as a group of neurons.
Align: Aligns neurons horizontally or vertically.
Space: The distance between two neurons.
Edit Selected Neuron(s): Configure neuron(s) properties.
Edit Selected Synapse(s): Configure synapse(s) properties.
Select: Pick out an element.
Select all: Select all screen elements (see selection).
Set selected neurons /weights: Open properties window for selected neurons or weights.
Clamp Neurons/Weights: Fixate neurons/weights value. See clamping.
Set properties: Different depending on whether you are clicked on a node or weight. If multiple nodes or weights are selected, it sets properties of that set. For more see neuron properties.Insert
Add Neuron: Add a new neuron to the network.
Add Neurons: Add a collection of neurons to the network. The update rule of the neurons and their layout can be specified.
Insert Neuron Group: Insert a set of neurons within one group.
Insert Network: Add a subnetwork to the network
Create Input Table: Create a table whose rows provide input to selected neuron(s).
Display/Edit Weight Matrix: Display a weight matrix viewer.
User can set whether or not to show network toolbars.
Toolbars: User can set which toolbars to show in network interface. See Toolbars.
Autozoom. Checking the "autozoom" box causes the network display to automatically resize the current neural network so it fits within the screen. Un-checking autozoom thus allows users to zoom in on data and pan it arbitrarily.
Show Neuron Priorities: Toggles whether neuron priorities (for use in priority update) are visible.
Loose Weights Visible: Toggle whether loose weights are visible in the GUI.
Scripts
To create customize simulations or behaviors not possible using the Simbrain GUI, you can customize scripts. See Scripting for more details.
If you right click (or left click while holding down the ctrl key) anywhere on the network panel a pop-up menu will appear, whose contents varies depending on where you click and whether there is anything in the clipboard.
Add Neuron: Create a new neuron at clicked location.
Add Neurons: Create neurons.
Insert Neuron Group: Create a group of neurons.
Insert Network: Creates a new network of a specified type, at clicked location.
Cut, copy, paste: Act as in a normal application. Paste only appears if there are items in the buffer to paste; cut and copy only appear if there are selected items to cut or copy. Items are pasted to clicked location.
Clear Source Neurons: Deselect set source neurons.
Sets Source Neurons: Set the selected neurons as source neurons.
Network Preferences: Opens network dialog.
Scripts: Open and apply a network .bsh script to the network.
If you right click (or left click while holding down the ctrl key) anywhere on the network panel a pop-up menu will appear, whose contents varies depending on where you click and whether there is anything in the clipboard. The commands here are described in Menu Edit.
Cut, copy, paste: act as in a normal application. Paste only appears if there are items in the buffer to paste; cut and copy only appear if there are selected items to cut or copy. Items are pasted to clicked location.
Delete: Deletes selected screen items.

Layout: See above.
Group: See above.
Edit Selected Neuron(s): See above.
Select: See above.
Create Input Table: Create a table whose rows provide input to selected neuron(s).
Display/Edit Weight Matrix: Display a weight matrix viewer.
Send Scalar Coupling To: Create a coupling from selected nodes to some world.
Recieve Scalar Coupling From: Create a coupling from selected nodes to some world.
