Is it possible to use selective save when starting an EDEM simulation in batch mode?

If yes, what are the commands for that and how do I specify which properties to save?

    Hi Karsten,

    Not currently, the selective save has to be specified in the user interface along with the properties to save.  Once it's setup when running in batch mode it will use this.

    I'd also consider using the export data during runtime functionality which is new to 2022.3:

    EDEM 2022.3

    This is also GUI setup however can help reduce simulation file size.

    Regards

    Hi Stephen,

    thanks for the clarification. I was not aware, that the batch mode actually considers any simulator settings which were made before. I thought that you have to specify that with the command flags every time. I will definitely test that!
