Description
Rewinding a file used as the destination of an Analysis will cause the current contents of the file to be overwritten the next time the file is written, even if the file was originally opened in “append” mode.
In the GUI, output files can be rewound from the Destination widgets on the Analysis and Boundary Analysis pages and the Mesh Cross Section toolbox. If the same file has been used in a Destination widget and in an OutputStream for a Scheduled Output, rewinding the file and rewinding the OutputStream are identical operations.
