Dinamically setting directory path throws: wrong parameter range format
I'm using RM 7.0.1 version with the parallel extension. I'm trying to set a path dinamically over multiple threads
i've got a basepath, inside the basepath there are N folders called just 1..2..N
I've made a macro that generates the base path and a loop parameters (parallel) operator that should dinamically set the 'directory' field of a loop file operator inside to navigate one of the inside folders according to thread.
in the loop parameters (parallel) i've made a list of values for the interior loop files operator like this:
%{basepath}\1\
%{basepath}\2\
%{basepath}\...\
%{basepath}\N\
assume basepath was set previously in a macro to a value like: C:\My\Path, and we're using only subfolders 1 and 2, what I get is an error:

(the path printed to the console are the actual, existing and correct paths that needs to be iterated

HI @mschmitz thank you for answering, so in the new version is possible to distribute the computation over all threads? because i've got a long list of sample reduction (kennard stone) to do, and I would not want to leave most of the cpu idle
Altair EmployeeHi @RPDECO ,
most of the loops are moved to parallel execution in like 8.2 or so. This also involves a better thread handling then before. So: Yes. Just use the normal Loop for it.
Cheers,

sorry, but 7.0 is very old, also the parallel extension got deprecated, since the functionality got moved into core and had it had some issues. Did you try this with a 9er Studio?
