How do I store animation in Ansys fluent?

04 March 2021 1 10K Report

I am trying to model a dam-break flow and I can create the animation using a VOF model and a 2 phase contour diagram, however I am met with this blank input box when I try to define my animation and then again when I want to save the animation itself. Does anyone know why this is happening and how to change it for future use? Thanks

For animation making，CFD-Post or Tecplot seems to be a better choice, ANSYS Fluent is more suitable to be used only as a solver .
