The Animation toolbar includes several options you can use to animate results.
Click one of the following buttons to display the selected result in the required way.
-
Step backward one frame at a time -
Step forward one frame at a time -
Play -
Pause -
Stop -
Loop animation (from start to finish repeatedly, until another button is selected) -
Bounce animation (from start to finish then the reverse repeatedly, until another button is selected)
For some results plots, you can choose what to animate; for example: animate over time or over a single dataset. Results displayed over a single dataset are animated through the unit of that result. For example, the Pressure at V/P switchover result is animated through the pressure values in the specified unit system (if Metric units are specified, pressure values are displayed in MPa).
- Right-click on the selected plot in the Study Tasks pane.
- Select Properties.
- Select your preferred option from the Animate result over drop-down list.
Note: Certain plots have only one option available.
The number of frames can be increased or decreased; for example, increase the number of frames to smoothen out a jerky animation.
To change the number of frames used in the animation, edit the plot properties.
