Copy a simulation

To produce variations of a simulation, use the Copy Simulation command on the context menu of a simulation.

You can copy a simulation that contains beams and nodes that are not updated from a source assembly. In such case, the Update is started automatically and all beams and nodes are updated to reflect an assembly at a specific state. The beams and nodes within the original simulation are not updated however.

To copy a simulation:

1. Right-click the simulation you want to copy and select Copy Simulation.
2. A copy of the simulation is created and numbered consecutively. The copy is now the active simulation. You can edit it to produce the variation.

Limitations of Copy Simulation

• Associativity between the copied object and the pasted object is not maintained.
• You can copy only one simulation at a time.
