Hi all, 

 

I am trying to simulate different positions of an obstacle using the winprop api. In order to do it:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>image.thumb.png.30084a35302c515f413206ae89e17632.png

 

I am using the attribute TimeInstance of the class WinProp_Additional in order to change the time step. I do not why when I open the result with the GUI, I realise the obstacle is not changing its position. Is there something that I am missing? (obviously the value of i is being updated I just did not include it on the image)

 

Thanks in advance.

    Hi,

    using 2019.2 and defining the time instance in the attribute TimeInstance of the class WinProp_Additional we are getting different results for different time instances, i.e. when loading the results in ProMan GUI, both the object and the related shadowing area is moving.

    Please find attached a corresponding ProMan GUI project with a simple moving box, where the same results can be achieved by using the WinProp API. I was adaping the APIExampleCPPIndoorPropagation and setting the time instance to 0s and 1s.
