Statistics Window

The Statistics Window contains information regarding statistical areas, calculation planes and LPD/UWLR areas for each project in the job file. By default, the Statistics Window is displayed and displays results soon as any calculations have been computed, or when corresponding metrics have been added to the analysis environment.

The Statistics Window can be easily closed. To display it again, toggle the Statistics button on the Status Bar.

The Statistics Window is located along the right edge of the graphics area by default and any visible views will automatically resize themselves to accommodate its width (and the Model Toolkit as well, as both are docked right by default). You may resize the window’s width by locating the cursor on the left edge and dragging in the appropriate direction. The cursor will change to a horizontal double ended arrow when the window can be resized.

The Statistics Window may also be docked on the left side, aligned left or right, and disconnected. Please see the Displaying Toolkits topic for more information.

Calculation Progress

While the calculations are proceeding, the Statistics Window also shows the Calculations progress bar and the Radiosity topping Criterion (% Light Absorbed) progress as the computations take place. During this time, you may Cancel, Stop or Pause the calculations if desired.

Cancel - Cancel all calculation processes, no results will be displayed.

Stop - Stop the calculation process at the current stage. If the radiosity process is stopped prematurely, calculation points will be computed from the current light levels.

Pause - Pause the calculations to interact with the environment, then resume calculations. Note, the calculation process need not be paused to interact with the environment in Render mode (you can navigate and change the display properties while calculating), however pausing the calculations may be desirable to free up some CPU resources if needed at a given time.

Calculations may be paused in Model mode or Render mode.

Note: minimizing AGi32 while calculating will allocate the calculation processes lower priority amongst other processes if desired.
