Title: how to read the result calculated using newer version ATK?
Post by: lknife on December 1, 2017, 08:22

Dear experts,

I have a permanent license of ATK2015 and temporary license of ATK 2016. I did some simulation with ATK2016 but it now expired and the renew of it is on the way. Now, I wanted to read directly some of the results calculated before using ATK2016, such as transmission spectrum, with ATK2015 but failed. Since I don't want to redo the simulation with ATK2015, can anybody here help me with this problem?

Thank you very much for your kind help!

BTW, I want to get the current from the transmission spectrum. Also, I can read the .log file calculated before but I cannot find the current information from the file.

I am afraid that it is not really possible to ensure forwards compatibility, so if the information you need is not in the log-file there is unfortunately not really anything that can be done, except waiting for the new license. Files generated by ATK2016 can be read only by ATK2016 and later.
