SUMMARY

The discussion centers on using VisEd for MCNP6, specifically the challenges faced when attempting to modify input files directly within VisEd. Users are unable to save changes made in VisEd and must resort to using a text editor to modify input files before reopening them in VisEd. This workflow complicates the simulation process for beginners looking to understand the impact of card changes on simulations.

PREREQUISITES

Familiarity with MCNP6 simulation software
Basic understanding of input file structure in MCNP
Knowledge of text editing tools
Experience with simulation workflows

NEXT STEPS

Explore the features of VisEd for MCNP6
Learn how to effectively edit MCNP input files using text editors
Research best practices for managing MCNP simulations
Investigate potential updates or plugins for VisEd that enhance file saving capabilities

USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for beginners in nuclear engineering, simulation specialists, and researchers using MCNP6 who seek to streamline their workflow with VisEd.

TL;DR: modify the charge file directly in Vised

I'm beginning in Vised for MCNP6 and i want to modify my imput file inside vised to understand how when i changed cards this affects the simulation. The problem is that i can't save inside vised my imput file, i have to open my imput file in an editor text an then reopen this file in vised.
Thanks in advance
NB: my screen shot show where i want to modify my imput and then start a new simulation
