This dialog is opened via Analysis Menu.
In the Monitor/Write Profile dialog you can save the values of a set of variables into a text file. You can save the values in points, along polylines, and in case of time-dependent computation the entire file. To save values from a rectangular area or some regions see Export Data.
Note
In case of a time-dependent computation the same dialog is invoked via Computation > Monitor.
Item | Description |
|---|---|
| Points | Opens the Points tab for saving the values of variables computed in defined points into a text file, see Points. |
| Polylines | Opens the polylines tab for saving the values of variables computed along defined lines into a text file, see Polylines. |
| Entire file | Opens the entire file tab for saving the entire file at time intervals during a time-dependent simulation, see Write Entire File. |
| Save every ... time step | Specifies the interval for the monitoring in number of time steps. It is available only when the dialog is opened via Computation > Monitor. menu. |
Tip
The data saved in text files is written in a table format with a fixed separator between columns. The separator could be specified in Preferences dialog, see Data storage tab.
