           Summary: KTechLab: simulation cannot be restarted from time=0

As I see, simulations cannot be restarted now (from t(0), time=0). There should
be a way however to restart a simulation.

I agree that there is not way to restart the simulation. Currently it would
have limited usefullness, because there is no way to export the simulation data
for post-processing, so the time reference is not that relevant.

As a workaround I recommend adding "reset" functionality to the circuit itself.
This "reset" could set all of the initial conditions which have been true at
time=0. In testing of "real world" circuits this is the equivalent of turning
it off and on, or having a reset button.

If you have a "stuck" simulation, then either the circuit is invalid, or you
have found a bug. Please note that the traces/oscilloscope do have a reset
button, because the stored traces are limited in size (in order to prevent the
program of using way too much memory during a long simulation).

If one uses the simulator to learn about electrical circuits, then it is quite
useful, however. :)
