Is current Simulink system model or subsystem in MATLAB

Question

I have a .m file where I do some actions with Simulink model, and I would like to check if the currently used model is the entire model or a subsystem. Is there a specific syntax or function to check this? I need to be able to perform actions differently depending on Simulink system.

Answer 1

You can always use bdroot to get the name of the top level system and use string comparison to see if you have a subsystem or not:

sysname = 'f14/Actuator Model';
istoplevel = strcmp(bdroot(sysname), sysname);
