Basic Operation

To display dataset information:

  1. Select QueryDataset... 

    The Associated Files section displays all dataset files giving the size in bytes and last modification date.

     

    The File Specific Information section displays information about the file currently selected in the Associated Files list. The information presented varies based on the file type and format.

     

    The General Geometric section displays whether the geometry is static (time invariant), changing coordinates (nodal coordinates update each timestep), or changing connectivity (coordinates plus connectivity update every timestep). Further the 3D extent of all geometry as well as the number of nodes and elements is displayed.

     

    The Element Detail section shows the type and number of all unique element types in the dataset.
