You can click the ‘Use Active’ button in the Animation Definition Panel to save the animation sequence in the view that is currently active in the graphical window. We recommend clicking the ‘Preview’ button in the Animation Definition panel before running the transient model to make sure the sequence is saved in the appropriate view orientation. When you save the animation sequence using the default HSF file format, you can change the view orientation when playing the animation by un-checking the ‘Use Stored View’ option in the Playback Panel.
Thanks for the video, I want to ask something please, as far as I understood to make animation , I see you first get a contour from a running case already or this is after initialization? and then you start to do the steps of animation by choosing the contour you have and so on ? I tried to make contour before running the case, it can not be done, I mean I can not make contour before running he case !! Thanks in advance
Thank you for your comment! It is true that you cannot create a graphical object if there is no solution in memory. Often you will start a transient solve with a converged steady state solution as the initial condition, however, this is not always possible depending on the goal of the simulation, and an initialized flow field must be used as the initial condition.
What a great lesson. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
How can I change from an isometric view to a 2D view? I can't find the option to change the view.

Here the velocity magnitude keeps changing how to keep it constant
Go to the conture --> axis --> user specified --> select your values --> run sim--> all is good
Thank you. That was not trivial for me!
