The attributes converted in each KEYWORD is explained in the Conversion dialog (see below). Each keyword is associated with a color to distinguish it better.
• | GREEN – All the attributes of the KEYWORD are converted to equivalent in RADIOSS. |
• | ORANGE – Only some the attributes of the KEYWORD are converted to equivalent in RADIOSS. |
• | RED – None the attributes of the KEYWORD are converted to equivalent in RADIOSS. Conversion of this keyword is not supported by the conversion tool. |
