Note: EnSight behaves somewhat differently in a Workbench session than when run stand-alone. Many of these changes are largely cosmetic, but that can be confusing initially.
The default part colors are different. EnSight in Workbench utilizes a more muted color palette with an improved default lighting configuration.
The mouse button graphics view manipulations have been modified to align better with the other Ansys application defaults. Specifically, the middle mouse is used to manipulate the view (with Ctrl and Shift modifiers), the left mouse is used to select entities and the right mouse is used to bring up context sensitive menus.
All interactive operations in an EnSight Workbench session are saved in an EnSight context file automatically. When you reopen EnSight, this context file will be used to restore the session to its last saved state. Whenever EnSight is closed, the context file is updated. You will not be prompted to save the EnSight state when exiting EnSight when it is launched from Workbench.
The default license manager for EnSight, when run from within an Ansys installation (including via Workbench) is the Ansys license manager. EnSight will use a SLiM license if an appropriate license cannot be obtained from the Ansys license manager.
