To the right of the Edit screen tab are a further set of screen tabs which provide access to calculations and output reports. The image below shows the screen tabs at the top of the DesignBuilder main form, as seen when in non-Learning mode. When Learning mode is active the same list is provided at the bottom of the screen.

• Visualisation
• Heating design simulation
• Cooling design simulation
• Simulation using hourly weather data (simply referred to as 'simulation' in DesignBuilder documentation)
• CFD
• Daylighting
• Cost and Carbon
• Calculate - for SBEM and DSM calculations (not covered in this Program help).

Display Options in the Panel in the bottom left of the screen allow you to change the data displayed and the presentation style.
