The Kiva loader imports GMV format files that were exported from Kiva.
• Select Input Files – From this button, multiple files can be selected in the Read Kiva/GMV File dialog. Those that are in GMV format will be added to the list of Kiva/GMV files. Once files are added to this list, they will remain in the list throughout the Tecplot 360 EX session, unless the [Clear List] button is selected.
• File Selections - Use the File Selection options for long file lists. Identify the first file to load by entering a number in the Start field, and the last file to load by entering a number in the Stop field.
Enter a value of 2 in the Skip field to load every other file, or 3 or greater to skip more files. To see the list selections updated according to the values in the Start, Stop, and Skip fields, click the [Apply Skip] button. At any time, you can choose to Select All or Deselect All files.
• Velocity Vector – Identify the naming convention for your velocity vectors.
• Loading Options:
• IsDouble - Allows greater precision for your data values.
• LoadParticleData - Adds a zone for any files containing particle data.
