Retrieve design variables using VAR() in both single and monte carlo run

RuneDS

I use the VAR() function to retrieve design variables in skill/ocean scripts for post processing. When running monte carlo simulations, the script wont work due to VAR("variable") returning a wave of variables. Is there a way to use VAR() or an equivalent function for getting design variables in scalar form without making separate scripts for single and monte carlo/sweeps?

    Hi Antonio,

    I have an example which is doing something similar (my expression isn't identical to yours, and I don't have the time to set it up to be exactly the same), but broadly speaking it's similar. Mine works OK - although I'm  using IC6.1.6.500.14 - yours is a pretty old ISR and maybe it was broken then.

    It ought to work - so I would suggest moving to the latest IC616 ISR, and if it's still not working, please raise this with customer support as it may be something specific to your setup which needs investigating and fixing.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
