Creating and saving new field output

The field and history output initially available in the output database are limited to those variables you have saved during the analysis. You can augment these analysis results by operating on field output to create new results.

Once created, you can save the new field output to the output database. You must open an output database file with write privileges if you want to save field output from the session to the file.

The following methods can be used to create and save new field output:

• Select ToolsField OutputCreate From Fields from the main menu bar or use the Create Field Output From Fields tool in the toolbox to create new field output variables by operating on individual existing field output variables.

• Select ToolsField OutputCreate From Frames from the main menu bar or use the Create Field Output From Frames tool in the toolbox to create new field output by combining results from several output database frames.

• Select ToolsField OutputSave Fields from the main menu bar to save new field output.

For information on selecting and plotting output database field output, see Selecting field output variables.
