Overview of Display Boxes

Remember that messages to the platform object are initially directed to the analysis layer. These messages can request additional analyses or options, such as those found in the red triangle menus. You can also send messages to the report layer in order to access information in numerical reports or graphical presentations. In some cases, your script might harvest the results in a platform and store them in variables, and then discard, or close, the platform. So, in those situations, the platform is simply being used as a compute engine.
