Constraints Information Dialog

 

 

 

All refinable parameters are classified in four types: Global parameters, Profile parameters, Atomic parameters and Propagation vectors.

 

New Constraint Relation

Use this option to add a new Constrain relation. This is the representative for others refinable parameters containing the same code.

 

When you click on this button, you will have a new window

 

 

You can select your refinable parameters from a list depending of the classification (Global, Profile,…..). To make appear a parameter in the proposed list it is necessary that the corresponding refinement checkbox is marked: make the parameter refinable. For a correct operation, the selected refinable parameters will be a “parent” and the user need to define one or more “childs” (other refinable parameters associated to this representative parameters).

Normaly the factor F for the representative variable is 1.0, but may be any real number in the range [-9.99, 9.99]. That means a the resulting shift of the “parent” parameter after solving the least squares equations is multiplied by F to obtain the shift to be applied to the refinable “child” variable.

 

 

Add Constraint

Add a refinable parameter to a “parent” refinable parameters.

 

Delete Constraint

Delete a constraint relation. The parameter continue to be refinable but now the code is not associated to a “parent” code.

 

Modify Constraint

Modify the factor of the selected refinable parameter.
