The table at the top of the Solve tab shows the elliptic solver information such as the Status (whether it is initialized or has been refined), what Iteration number has been run, the Dimensions, the Max. Residual and Total Residual. You can pick the entities you want to solve (i.e., the subgrids) so that only the entities with a checkmark next to them will be modified.
The entities can be sorted by any of the columns in the table. Simply click on the header and the order of the entities changes accordingly. For example, if you wish to sort all entities by their dimensions, you would click on the Dimensions header at the top of the table. The direction of the arrow in the header indicates whether the sort is in ascending or descending order. Fidelity Pointwise also remembers how you prefer to have your entities sorted. Upon entering the Solve command, the entities are sorted in the same manner as when you exited the command.
Note: Keep in mind that Fidelity Pointwise remembers how entities are sorted in this table only during the current session. Once Fidelity Pointwise is closed, the sort order is not retained.
Below the table is the Iterations text field which allows you to specify how many iterations the solver runs. There are also several buttons for running the solver, initializing entities, and projecting domains:
Note: When pressed, the text of the Run and Initialize buttons changes to Stop. Pressing the button a second time interrupts the command and returns the button to its original state.
The Examine button is a shortcut to the full Examine function while in the Solve command. The Function drop down menu shows the available options. For blocks, cuts are saved as long as the Solve command is active and reset when OK or Cancel is selected. Close closes the Examine function and return to the Solve command. For more information about the diagnostic functions available, refer to the Examine section.
