Viewing results

Hello,
whenever a result file becomes larger than about 1,9GB it is split up in two or more files with the additional extention numbering the files (e.g. *.wfd.1).
The WUFIGraphic viewer has no problems reading from these consecutive files, however WUFI-2DMotion only reads the first .wfd-file and then stops which results in being able to only view the first fraction of the results in 2D.
I have tried to remove the additional extention to view one at a time but this did not work.
Is there a way around this problem?

Thanks

Hello,
the problem is that on different version of windows different string concatenuations takes place. On the development system the resultfiles got the numbering result.wfd.1 result.wfd.2 and so on but on the latest windows version the files became result.wfd. 1 result.wfd. 2 (with spaces). And the result viewer can only handle the former case.
So either rename the resultfiles or concat the files using the command in a command window (c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe):
copy /b file1+file2+...+fileN result.wfd
The latter takes some time and the result file will have the size of all the combined files added but you can be sure to work on the whole
resultset afterwards in wufi2dmotion). But be careful to use the correct order of the resultfiles.
