    Control Plaxis-modules that should load in Plaxis

    Control Plaxis-modules that should load in Plaxis (Flexible/Network licenses).


    To not load and therefore not allocate the Flow- or Dynamics-module easy toggles can be created.


    These toggles switched on/off easily and enables for persons who needs the specific module to have access to these. If no toggles exists the first person loading Plaxis will load the extra modules witch can be problematic if you have multiple Plaxis standard licenses and only one or a few modules.


    Files without file-extensions are created (one for each module) with the specific names as below: 


    PRETEND_NO_TRANSIENT_FLOW


    PRETEND_NO_DYNAMICS


    These are created in the folder “toggles” (“\PLAXIS 2D\toggles”) if this folder does not exist; create it. The toggles can be switched off by deleting them or changing the name ex. (NO_PRETEND...).


    A toggle for the Thermal-module will be precented here if one is found.
