[solved] what does FEM preference "Keep results" do?

Post by uwestoehr »

In the preferences we have the option "Keep results": https://wiki.freecad.org/FEM_Preferences#General

I played with it but cannot see a difference. Does anybody know what this does?

Many thanks. (I tested with Elmer thus did not notice this.)
I documented it now and added a tooltip to the preferences dialog
