is also able to turn on/off real-time synchronization and simulation data recording.
The sim_control_panel displays the current running mode of the simulation, the simulation
elapsed time, and status messages outputted by the sim.
The sim_control_panel is used to launch other Trick runtime GUIs including the Trick View,
\fBtrick-tv\fP, and the Malfunctions Trick View, \fBtrick-mtv\fP.
