Simulink progress from command line

Hi. Does anyone know how I can assess Simulink simulation progress when the simulation is called from the command line or an .m file script? I'd rather not have a scope open (too slow) and the progress indicator in the Simulink window (assuming I have the model open) doesn't seem to update when the simulation is called from the command line.

Thanks in advance for any solutions or clues.

I don't know of a public API that you can use to query the progress of simulation, but if you're familiar with C-MEX S-functions, it should be fairly simple to write a custom block that can report the progress based on the simulation StopTime (ssGetTFinal) and current simulation step (ssGetT).

You can use ssPrintf to print to console.
