What is the method to use a Proximity Sensor in Motionview?

I've been unable to find a way to apply a Proximity Sensor in Motionview. Are there any examples of using this functionality? Is this only available in Inspire?

Sensor: Proximity Model Element The Sensor_Proximity element defines a sensor between two bodies which monitors their minimum separation. The sensor tracks the state of interference of the two bodies, the minimum distance between them, and the coordinates of a pair of closest points. These quantities can be accessed using the PROXIMITY function for use in defining expressions or for plotting.

Thanks

    Hi Brian - Sorry, I did not realize you were using the new interface, where this feature is not rightly supported in the Live run version.

    You may use the Offline mode.
