On the Parameters Set tab and any Parameters tab, the Outline and Table panes display icons on output parameters to indicate their states.
An output parameter that is up-to-date displays no icon. Only the value of the output parameter is shown.
An output parameter that is out-of-date displays the Update Required icon (
). Either the output parameter has not been solved or requires an update
because local data has changed.An output parameter that has failed to update displays the Update Failed, Update Required icon (
). An output parameter that has partially updated values because of an interruption to either a project update or a design point update displays the Partially Updated icon (
).
During cell, system, project, and both local and remote design point updates, the Outline and Table panes update the states of the output parameters.
Changes elsewhere in the project could cause the state of some, but not all, output parameters to go out-of-date and require update. In those cases, only those output parameters affected by the changes are shown as requiring an update. Output parameters that are not affected by the changes remain up-to-date.
Changes to derived parameters or associated expressions are recalculated immediately rather than requiring an update. If you add or change derived parameters, other parameters are not affected by this change and so do not require an update.
Design points that are being updated using RSM display the
Pending icon (
) in the design points table while the
remote design point update is in progress. When each updated design point is
retrieved, associated output parameters reflect the results of the update.
