Command Panels

The Command Panels provide a graphical means of accessing almost all of the Cube-it functionality. The main Cube-it Command Panel is divided into six modes. Each of these modes pertains to a major component of the Cube-it application. To view information about each of the tools in the Control Panel select the help icon on each panel to access context specific help.

From left-to-right, the command panel modes are:

• Geometry Operations
• Meshing Operations
• Analysis Groups and Materials Operations
• FEA Boundary Condition Operations
• CFD Boundary Condition Operations
• Post-meshing Launch Control
