Note the following:

  • As FieldView is not installed via the Ansys Fluent installation procedure, the path to the right executable must be provided before launching FieldView. This path is stored in the polyman.ini file in your HOME directory. So you do not have to enter it for each Ansys Polyman session.

  • If you want to use any special command line arguments for FieldView, enter them in the Arguments field under Command line arguments.

  • Deselecting Use FVX script to automatically read dataset makes FieldView start without reading any file. Files can be read using standard FieldView commands.

  • Deselecting Read all available dataset (transient or evolution problem) makes FieldView read only the selected .uns file.
