Introduction What is UIDL? UIDL is the ANSYS “User Interface Design Language”. UIDL is specifically designed as a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for the ANSYS command structure. Ability to create Menus, Dialog boxes, and Picking Controls. Implemented by ANSYS at revision 5.1 Until ANSYS 6.1 the ANSYS Main Menu and most Dialog Boxes were generated using UIDL Computer Aided Engineering Associates, Inc. * Copyright? 2002 Computer Aided Engineering Associates, Inc. Usability Specially designed as a GUI for ANSYS for ease in assembling ANSYS Commands Easy to incorporate User Programmed GUI with ANSYS GUI Interpreted (not compiled) so effects of modifications are immediately realizable. Can add features on corporate level and individual user level Compatibility: Cross-platform compatible.
