Multi-model Result Plotting
HyperView allows for plotting (contour, iso, vector, or tensor) across multiple overlaid models.
- Contour/Iso/Vector/Tensor panels
- Notes/Measure/Query panels (all queries and advanced queries will be made on a per model basis)
- Result View of the browser
In order to enable results on multiple overlaid models, the legacy behavior has been modified in the following areas:
- Caching policy
-
When you create a results cache from a panel or browser, it creates a cache for every model that participated in the result plots and it will be listed in the browser for each model separately. HyperView will internally maintain a record of related caching entities. When the saved cache is deleted from the panel or browser, it will also be cleared from the browser list for each model.
- If an overlaid model does not participate in contour plot, then a cache entity will not be created for that model.
- If contour is plotted and cached across several models and one or some of the models are later deleted, the cache entity will remain on the models which were not deleted.
- Opening legacy session/report templates with overlaid models
-
When a legacy session file containing multiple overlaid models with results plotted is opened in HyperView, then:
- If the same results are plotted across all the models, all of the results will be retained and displayed upon opening.
- If there is a mismatch between the results, only the results of the current model will be retained. A message will be posted to the log informing you of this at the time of opening.
- Copy and overlay of windows or pages
-
In both of the cases below, the incoming model will not be made current.
- If the overlaid (source) window/page contains a result plot that matches the target window/page, then both results will be retained and displayed in the target window/page.
- If the overlaid (source) window/page contains a result plot that does not match the target window/page, then on overlay only the results plotted on the target window/page will be retained. The overlaid model will be shown in component (part) color without results.
- Report template overlay on window/page containing results
-
In both of the cases below, the incoming model will not be made current.
- If the report template contains a result plot that matches the plot on the target window/page then both results will be retained and displayed in the target window/page.
- If the report template contains a result plot that does not match the target window/page, then on overlay only the results plotted on the target window/page will be retained. The overlaid model will be shown in component (part) color without results.
- Extended selection by contour option
-
For overlaid models, this selection method will work on a per model basis. For example, if you want to select elements using the Extended Entity Selection -- By Contour method and you search for Top N with N=2, HyperView will select four entities (two entities for each model).
- Model info
-
The model info note has been changed to display information regarding all overlaid models in a concise manner. The Templex expression has also been changed.
- Edit legend
-
A new By Model option has been added to the Edit Legend dialog. This option allows you to display the maximum and minimum legend values for each overlaid model separately.
- Derived results
- Derived results must be now created for each model separately. This has been changed in the case of copy/overlay and report template overlay.
