Message Manager Window
The Message Manager window displays informational messages about various processes in Ansys Electronics Desktop, including messages related to simulations and any errors they may have produced.
Display or hide the Message Manager in one of two ways:
- Click View >
Message Manager
A check box appears next to this command if the Message Manager is visible. - On the status bar, click Show Messages or Hide Messages.
Messages in the Message Manager window are organized first by project, then by circuit. Because a design can contain multiple circuits and subcircuits, sometimes with multiple analyses for each, this organization helps you to quickly determine where errors have occurred. The following icons appear next to a message to indicate information, warnings, errors, or actions:
|
Indicates an informative message. |
|
Indicates a warning message that may require your attention. |
|
Indicates an error message that may require your attention. |
|
Indicates the existence of an action that is associated with the message. Click on the message to invoke the action (the cursor will change to a hand icon when it is placed over the action message). |
Right-click in the Message Manager window to open a pop-up menu with the following options:
- Clear messages for the current model.
- Copy messages to the clipboard. This can be helpful for sending messages to application engineers.
- Details – opens an information dialog that contains the project and design data for the specified message.
- Go to Reference – allows you to right-click on an intersection error message after running a validation check. This selects intersecting objects in the current design being validated.
