Hi,

I have created a simulation model in Opensim 4.0 through Notepad++
But, i would like create a MATLAB/python program for the same simulation. I was able to install the opensim package in both MATLAB and python.
Could anyone let me know if there is a way to export the .osim file into matlab to create .m matlab file or do i have write a separate matlab code for the same simulation to do it?
One more thing, the reason i wanted to create a MATLAB code for the simulation is that I have been using a constant value to specify the 'location in parent' value for the body but instead i would like to use a variable to specify it.
For instance:
I am currently using the following
<location_in_parent>0 0.8 0</location_in_parent>
But i would like to use a variable like the following
<location_in_parent>0 t 0</location_in_parent>
where i can change the value the variable 't' whenever i want.
If this can be done, Please let me know about that as well.

Thank you.

You will need to write your own script that reads your model into memory, makes edits, and runs a simulation. There are example scripts in your OpenSim Resources/Code/Matlab directory. An example of editing a models muscle strength can be seen here
