3.7. Copying and Deleting Files

You can copy and delete files that are visible in the project tree.

  • To copy a file, select it and then select the Edit/Copy menu item

    Edit Copy

    or type Ctrl-C.

  • To paste a copied file, select the simulation where you want to paste it, and then select the Edit/Paste menu item

    Edit Paste

    or type Ctrl-V.

  • To rename a file or the simulations, select it and then select the Edit/Rename menu item

    Edit Rename

    or right-click the name of the simulation in the tree.

    Ansys Polyman will check that the desired name is actually different from existing names.

  • To update the project tree with your latest changes, select the Edit/Refresh menu item.

    Edit Refresh

    The project tree is automatically refreshed on a regular basis, so you will generally not need to refresh it manually.

  • To delete a file, select it and then select the Edit/Delete menu item

    Edit Delete

    or press Delete on your keyboard.

  • To delete all of the graphic output files (that is, .flum and .flur files) from a simulation, select the simulation and then select the Edit/Delete Outputs menu item.

    Edit Delete Outputs

    The Delete output files ? panel will open, which allows you to select the files that you want to delete. Multiple files can be selected by holding the Shift key or the Ctrl key while clicking the left mouse button.
