FED can't be bound lower than 3, causes Smokeview to crash.

[LWilson15]

While trying to determine the bound data for an FED slice in Smokeview it's default values are 0 minimum and 3 maximum. When changing the maximum number to anything lower than 3 it causes Smokeview to crash.

Is this intentional? Is there a way to make the maximum bound for FED 1 instead of 3?

Please submit a simple test case (FDS input file) that demonstrates the problem.

I don't think I can demonstrate the problem through an FDS input file. Attached is the fds input used, however the issue is within Smokeview.

Thanks. Glenn will need the FDS case to be sure he can reproduce the problem.

I was able to reproduce the problem with thouse5.fds in the smv repo. I assume that it would fail the same way for your case. try smokeview posted here

a couple of comments .

1. I've been working on updating our bundling process (programs used to install our software) . so after you install the update at the link above verify that it is smokeview 6.7.10-30 (type smokeview -v at a command line or look in the About menu item)
2. the default colorbar used for FED slice output is customized to have a min of 0.0 and a max of 3.0 . If you want to use different min/max values you'll need to choose a different colorbar (menu item Show/Hide>Color>Colorbar ). This was not the problem with your case however - it was a an array index out of bounds error. This should be fixed. It could show up somewhere else that I missed. So let me know if you see any other problems

Yeah the crash occurred after changing the colour bar to Rainbow. It works perfectly fine now thank you very much.
