Claim One:
1. A method, comprising: obtaining a model that, when executed, simulates behavior of a dynamic system, the model including a plurality of model elements, the plurality of model elements corresponding to one or more physical elements associated with the dynamic system, the obtaining the model being performed by a first computing device, the first computing device being associated with a technical computing environment (TCE); receiving, based on obtaining the model, a request to generate a report associated with a physical element of the one or more physical elements, the report corresponding to a two-dimensional representation of the physical element or a spatial representation of the physical element, the receiving the request being performed by the first computing device; generating a tag, the tag including one or more symbols, the generating the tag being performed by the first computing device; associating the tag with a model element, of the plurality of model elements, that corresponds to the physical element, the associating the tag being performed by the first computing device; causing, based on the tag and information associated with the physical element, the report to be generated in a manner that includes the tag, the tag being located on, or within, the report, the causing the report to be generated being performed by the first computing device; and causing at least part of the model to be displayed, in the TCE, based on the tag, the at least part of the model including the model element associated with the tag, an appearance of the at least part of the model being altered to indicate that the model element is associated with the tag, the causing the at least part of the model to be displayed being performed by a second computing device.
