Event Series

An event series is a series of coordinate data over time that describes a specific quantity.

The event series data contains time stamps, locations, and field values. Analyzing an event series can help you make more informed decisions on model design.

You can customize the rendering style to use a solid color or a field value (such as time) at a location (such as the current frame, cutting plane, or XY plane). You can limit the range of data shown, for example, between a specific time range or between a certain cutting thickness, and you can probe the values displayed. Use color coded event series to show data over a distinct display range. The display range can include the entire series, the current frame, a time interval, a cutting plane, or an X-Y plane.

One example of an event series is a set of data that describes the additive manufacturing process, specifically, how material is deposited during the additive manufacturing process. A typical use case for additive manufacturing would be to verify that laser paths and powder deposits align properly with the parts of your model.
