Why I cannot set the time step in 4.0a?

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

The default is range(0,0.1,1), but when I changes the setting to another range and size, it always runs based on the range(0,0.1,1). What can I do to update this?

Thanks

Wei

Hi

I assume you are in 4.0 and you are talking about the time step in the highest solver node, where you define the time, but you have also run once the solver so you have a full solver sequence present.

In V4.0 there is missing an update link from the main Time dependent solution settings and the solver settings Parameter (this is also the case for the stationary Continuation parameter), you need either to delete your solution (but this deletes ALSO all related postprocessing) or you update in two places: 1) in the stationary node, and 2) lower down in the Parametre sub node

This is corrected in V4.1, both are linked ;)

Good luck
