By default, Workbench does not retain design points after they are solved. It saves the calculated data only for the current design point. For other design points, only the parameter values are saved.
In some cases, you might want to switch back and forth between multiple designs within the same project. To do this, select one or more design points and retain their calculated data within the project.
To retain design points data:
To open the Table pane, double-click the Parameters cell of a system or the Parameter Set bar.
For each design point you want to retain data for, select the Retained check box.
Note: When this check box is selected, data for all systems inside the Workbench project are stored for the design point, regardless of whether a system has connection to the parameters. When only a small portion of the system is parameterized, retaining the data is not efficient. This is a known limitation.
To generate retained design point data, update the design points.
Once design point data has been retained:
You can verify that the data has been retained and see the availability and state of the retained data. For more information, see Reviewing the Retained Data Column.
You can view multiple designs by setting different design points as current. For more information, see Setting a Different Design Point as Current.
