Track changes made to model

Is there a way that you can track changes that have been made to a model? Like if a parameter got changed in the Configuration Dialog box, if a block got moved/changed, a new block was added or a subsystem was converted to a reference model?

You could write a script that uses find_system(gcs); and stores all the block names into a mat-file. You can call that script when you load the model to compare the current find_system(gcs); results to that stored in the MAT-file.

If the callback can be used to find changes in subsytem will be better.

You could use the Simulink Report Generator XML file compare tool on the Simulink model files. This would be the 'supported' method of doing this and if you have access to support they would be able to help you further if you run into issues.
