Global Network Update Toolbar

The global iteration toolbar holds options allowing the user to update all the networks in the workspace simultaneously.

Global step update algorithm: One click will update every network in the workspace by one timestep.
Global iteration update algorithm: One click will continue to updating every network in the workspace iteratively until clicked again. Note that the image on the button becomes that of a "stop" button Stop. Pressing this button will stop the network. Thus the play/stop button acts as a toggle switch.

The Network creator: clicking this button will open a network window in the workspace. From the network window the user can construct any number of networks available within Simbrain.
The World button, when clicked displays a menu of the different kinds of worlds available in Simbrain. Worlds exist as a sort of virtual place where neural networks in Simbrain can both acquire input and in some cases effect their environment with their output.
The statistics button brings up a list of statistical visuals, which can be coupled to various aspects of Simbrain's neural networks.
The console button allows the user command line level access to Simbrain's features.
