[Generative Design] What does processing status mean?

[kevtan]

When I'm viewing the generated outcomes from a generative design study, I see that I can filter and sort by "processing status" of which there seem to be two variants: converged and completed (if there are more just these two like a diverged or something I have simply not encountered yet please feel free to let me know). I was wondering what the difference between these two were? My guess is that converged means that the difference between one iteration of the generative design algorithm and the next was within some specified threshold, so the algorithm calls it quits and moves on with its life, but what about completed? I have no clue what that one could mean. Thanks in advance!

Does this answer your question? The status of studies and outcomes.

Yes it does! I don't know why my previous searches did not turn up that page. Thanks!

Hey! It looks like the provided page is no longer available. Is there another place to find the answer?

Hi @lgarcia271547JPJ . The old link does not work because the documentation has been re-organized. The page still exists in the documentation (the Help) at this link: Fusion 360 Help | The status of studies and outcomes | Autodesk
