Define your detector and reload it later in others configurations
If you often simulate the same detectors or sources, you have the possibility to save them and reload them in others CIVA configurations. This can allow you to build your own library of sources and detectors, and to avoid making some mistakes when entering input data in CIVA. This is not a new feature in CIVA, but it remains very helpful!
Once you have filled in all the information in the selected panel (detector in that case), just select the “File” menu, then “Save” on the top left side of the panel.
By doing this, you will save the geometry of the detector, but also the material of the sensitive layer, and the filters if you have defined any.
When you will define the same detector for another configuration, just load the *.xml file containing all the data from the same place with the “Open” menu. Don’t spend any more time modeling it!
This feature is also available for other panels (component, flaw, IQI…).
