Active Topology Queries - Common Behaviors
Some behaviors are common to both approaches for applying
active topology queries. Those behaviors are listed below.
- Changes made to your model by clicking on Apply Queries can be undone using the standard undo/redo support.
- When using Query Based Active Topology mode, changes to Is Active? status (as a result of applying queries) will not be added to the Change Tracking log.
- Active Topology queries and associated settings are stored with the Active Topology Alternative.
- When in Query Based active topology mode, the Is Active? property for modeling elements will be shown as read-only (it is only editable when using Selection Based mode).
- Query based active topology is applied on a scenario change if this option is enabled for the model. You can also apply the queries at any time by choosing Apply Queries. For instance, if you change a query, or if you edit values the query is based on (e.g. if you change the Year Retired for some elements).
- Query based active topology is applied before the model is computed if this option is enabled for the model. Model computation is on a WYSIWYG basis.
