Solving a Parametric Setup before a Sensitivity Analysis

Solving a parametric setup before a sensitivity setup is useful for guiding Optimetrics in a sensitivity analysis.

To solve a parametric setup before a sensitivity setup:

1. In the Setup Sensitivity Analysis dialog box, click the General tab.
2. Click the parametric setup you want Optimetrics to solve before the sensitivity setup from the Parametric Analysis drop-down menu.
   Note:

   The parametric setup must include sweep definitions for the sensitivity variables.

3. Select Solve the parametric sweep before analysis.

If the parametric setup has not yet been solved, Optimetrics solves it. Optimetrics uses the results (of the solution calculation you requested under the Goals tab of the Setup Sensitivity dialog box) to determine the next design variation to solve for the sensitivity analysis.
