Cloud vs Local solve

Select where you would like to run the analysis using the Home tab of the ribbon in Synergy. When you first launch Synergy, the jobs default to local solve. Whenever you relaunch Synergy, it defaults to the last setting you selected.

Note: To run jobs on the cloud, you need a current Autodesk® Account, an Autodesk ID and password, and Cloud Credits.

When you run jobs on the cloud, if you lose your internet connection, analyses already scheduled will not be affected, and can be downloaded when your internet connection is restored.

  1. Click (Home tab > Analysis panel > Analyze) to run the analysis locally. As soon as the first set of intermediate results are available, they will be listed under the Results node in the Study Tasks pane. Select a plot to view the results.
