Tips & Tricks Prominas/MineSight: Tools to help focus and locate your geometric object

Sometimes, when opening or importing a geometric object, it may not appear in the viewer. Then we have some tips to help you locate or focus on these “missing” geometric objects. So you can use some of the commands or settings below: 1st) Check if you are viewing in 2D or 3D mode. If your VIEWER is in 3D mode, also check if the Viewer Volume Clipping function is disabled so as not to filter only in the area of influence of the configured GRID plane. 2nd) To focus and center the object on the screen you can use the Target command, if there is more than one object open use the Zoom to Extents command. 3) Check if the open geometric object has the same color or is almost identical to the color of the screen background. One tip is to use…

Tips & Tricks Prominas/MineSight: Query – Selecting items for visualization.

In our day-to-day working with the block model, we need to interrogate it (Query) to obtain information. However, when we use a model with a large number of variables, we often have to scroll until we find the variable of interest. To reduce the number of items to be visualized there is the option Query/View/Items… This way you can leave marked only the items you want to visualize and thus maximize the efficiency of the work.

Tips & Tricks Prominas/MineSight: Convert Transient To Actual Tool.

The “Convert Transient To Actual” tool allows the MineSight user to store the lines visualized in 2D from a surface in a geometric object. Access to this tool is through the “Element” option. To get the lines visualized in a section, just define the desired 2D section, select the “Convert Transient To Actual” tool and click on the region of interest. The polyline is automatically generated and stored in the geometric object being edited.

Tips & Tricks Prominas/MineSight: Multi-period sequencing in MSSO

The long-awaited multi-period scheduling is now available in version 8.0 of MineSight Schedule Optimizer. The multi-period option provides the user with the possibility of a global optimization with full-period window and sub-period windows, for example, it is possible to group the first five periods together and then follow every two periods. This grouping through windows of one or more periods, allows you to execute an optimized schedule on this group, so the result of the first periods will always be optimized so that you always get the expected result in the last periods of that window. With this option you can easily configure your MSSO for a schedule through single period windows, fixed period windows or variable period windows and your result can be optimized so that you always find…
