Changes (like advanced solver options etc.) WHILE an analysis sequence runs

Changes (like advanced solver options etc.) WHILE an analysis sequence runs

Often, after starting a typical Cool(FEM)+Fill+Pack+Warp sequence, and while still at an early stage (i.e. Cool(FEM) running), one may change his/her mind on some options re further-on behavior; for example demand Warp to isolate the components. But when you change ANYTHING in Process Settings - regarless on whether it would really affect the current analysis state - we're presented with this familiar "Create copy", "Delete Results", or "Cancel" warning window. Less expereinced useers get frightened off by the necessity of running the sequence from scratch, so they cancel and do not introduse the desired changes...

 

It would be nice if the program "considered" the situation first, and only display the warning window if the user-introduced changes would invalidate the already produced/being produced results, or require the running analysis to alter the way it's executing. We the more experienced users know that if none of the above would happen, pressing "Delete" will actuallyNOT stop the sequence while introducing our changes to the way the consecutive analyses should execute.

 

Do you consider to introduce a more intelligent, context-sensitive use of the "Create copy", "Delete Results", or "Cancel" dialog window?

 

Thanks
