Scenario

You have created a simulation in RoboDk for a robot application and need to quickly determine the reachability of the robot. Displaying the workspace will allow you to determine if the location of the parts in relation to the robot is appropriate. 

Solution

By pressing the asterisk key [*] will show or hide the workspace. Additionally the workspace can be turned on by 

going to view=> 'show/hide robot workspace'

Any point within the workspace area is reachable by the robot. However this method does not take into consideration any singularity or collision issues near the robots maximum reach within the workspace.
