Reduce visual clutter for multiple parametric studies

      I have several parametric studies, each independent from one another with 1 input parameter and 3 output parameters:

      when I ran the first study I had a neat 10x4 table, with 10 different cases and the 4 variables listed on each column.

      Now that I've added another study, I'll have a 20x8 table:

      • Cells A1:D10 have the data for the first study
      • Cells E11:H20 have the data for the second study
      • Cells A11:D20 and E1:H10 have useless data about an eventual cross study between the two.

      This situation will only get worse once I'll start adding more data. I plan to have about 10 different studies or more, resulting in a parametric matrix about 100x40 big, with the useful data scattered in a sea of useless numbers. It will be impossible for me to have order in this mess, forcing me to have a different .wbpj for each new study.

      Can I separate the parametric tables somehow? I'm 100% certain all my studies are independent and won't cross with each other. Do I need to create a whole new project just for each case? I hope there's a smarter way.

      Thanks in advance for any tip.

      Hi,

      If the parameter sets are independent, Is there a specific reason that you need them in a single workbench project?

      If you are using any Design Exploration systems:

      Then you have the option to turn any parameters on or off for any system:

      But, if the systems are independent, which it is clear from your image, as no systems are sharing any data, please elaborate on why you need single project of multiple independent systems.

      Hi, all of the studies belong to a project I'm working on. I also would like to have them on the same wbpj in order to compare them and have them open together, without having to close a project and open another one.

        You can also export the parameters table to external programs such as excel to manage it better:

      Thank you, I'll try this method. Otherwise I'll use a different wbpj for each study.

      At the end of the day I saw that the solution was even simpler than I expected: I saw the totality of the input and output parameters on one big table because I was clicking on "Parameter Set" on the image in the initial post.

      To see only the parameters related to a specific study all I had to do was to click on "Parameters" on the study, cells A8 and B8. That lead me to a filtered table with only the params that I cared about.
