Displaying the Sorted Order

To display the sorted order, select Sorted order from the Simulink Format menu. Selecting this option causes Simulink to display a notation in the top right corner of each block in a block diagram.

The notation for most blocks has the format s:b, where s specifies the index of the subsystem to whos execution context (see Conditional Execution Behavior) the block belongs and b specifies the block's position in the sorted order for that execution context. The sorted order of a Function-Call Subsystem cannot be determined at compile time. Therefore, for these subsystems, Simulink uses either the notation s:F, if the system has one initiator, where s is the index of the subsystem that contains the initiator, or the notation M, if the subsystem has more than one initiator.
