The methods alert, confirm, and request display a dialog with a text string and optional user input. The following example uses confirm to ask the user if a direct or an iterative solver should be used in an application. Based on the answer, the alert function is then used to show the estimated memory requirement for the selected solver type in a message dialog:

This line of code displays plot group 5 (pg5) in the graphics object graphics1 in the form with the name Temperature:

The code below displays the mesh in the model tree node mesh1 in the graphics object graphics1 contained in the card of a card stack. The second line runs a zoom extents command to ensure proper visualization of the mesh.

The code below is similar to the code above, but in this case the report is saved in Microsoft® Word® format (.docx).

This line of code sets the view of the graphics object form1/graphics1 to View 5, as defined in the model tree:

You can use Data Access in combination with Editor Tools to create a slider or an input field that sets the transparency level (alpha) of a plot group. The figure below shows a Settings window of a slider with the transparency level as Source.

In this case you need to create a method for updating the view that is called to handle an event from the slider or form object. In the example above, the slider uses a Local method defined in the Events section. This method contains one line of code that updates the view:

Note that you can also set a view from the command sequence of, for example, a button: select a view subnode under the Views node in the editor tree and click the Plot button under the tree.

to go to the graphics object graphics1 in the form form1.

This line of code sets the URL source of the form object webpage1 to the COMSOL web page:

You can present the string with an input field or a data display object using this string as a source (the string screenSize needs to be declared first).
