Compile only referenced model and not the entire project

Hello,

I recently updated my Matlab/Simulink from R2017b to R2022a.

I work with a Simulink "Main-Model" containing a large number of referenced models.

In R2017b when I clicked on a referenced model it automatically opened as Top Model and I was able to compile it and debug it stand-alone.

Now with R2022a the referenced model is opened in its hierarchy and once I want to compile it I need to wait that the complete "Main-Model" is compiled.

Is there a way to automatically execute the command "Open as Top Model" once I double click on a referenced model? Or in alternative, is there a way to only compile one referenced model if it is not opened as Top Model?

Thank you

It is my understanding that you are working on a Simulink model that contains many referenced model and have some uncertainty in the working with the updated version of MATLAB.

To open a referenced model as a top model, click the Open As Top Model badge on the Model block.

The command to compile the model without opening it as top model is

modelname([],[],[],'compile')

Oh nice! I never noticed the badge on the referenced model. Perfect, this answer my questions.

Thank you!
