Interactive Options Selector

To open the options selector, select View > Solver Options Selector on the main form or click to the right of the Options field. This will open the form shown in Figure 1 – usually containing only the most commonly used options (unless the solver has only few options available). Select the More options button to display all applicable options.
Figure 1. Interactive available options selector


This form contains options applicable and selective to a particular solver, so the input file must be selected for the Compute Console first, before it is possible to choose an appropriate set of options. After selecting any option, an additional form appears if a value for the option is required. You can enter a value in the field, select from the list of available options or use File Browser to select file path as applicable. In cases where a value is optional, the ‘None’ button on the form may be used. The selection of any option automatically disables incompatible options in the list. After options are transferred to the main form, it is possible to manually edit the contents of this field on the main form, if required.
