How do I find where my CGM plots are going? 

Description:
When not using the auto/delete option in IESX where do my saved cgm files 
go so I can use that same cgm file to plot again to make multiple copies, 
and how do I do that if I'm using ZEH rendering software?

Solution:
In an IESX xterm, launched out of Geonet, type %cd $IESX_METAPATH. 
If you are not using Geonet, in an xterm type %source /home/gqs/setup_ies, 
then type %cd $IESX_METAPATH. The environment variable is set in the /home/gqs/setup_ies file.

The plot directory will contain the cgm file (*.cgm), the parameter file 
for plotting (*.cgmp), and the log file (*.log). 

The *.cgmp can be edited and the "copies=01" as shown below can be edited 
to plot the number of copied you desire.

_________________________________________________________
ftype=cgm plotter=hp650 label="workflow.cgm -- username"
metafile=/home/cs/zps/wrk/workflow.cgm copies=02
_________________________________________________________

You then copy the *.cgmp file to /home/zps/daem (path may be different 
but the 'daem' directory will always be present.

Then copy the *.cgm file to /home/zps/wrk directory or edit the *.cgmp 
file so that the 'metapath' is the directory where the cgm file is located.

Note: Addtional fields can be added to the *.cgmp file such as plot rotation,
 gamma values etc... For more information on how to edit these fields consult
 your ZEH user manual.
