This can be useful for skipping the beginnings of simulations that take a  longer time to reach the desired state. The instructions on this page will guide you in starting a simulation from a custom frame state.

Start by creating a new project from File → Project Window
Click the New button at the top right corner of the window and give it a name.
In this example, the project is named SimFromCustomFrame.
