Interrupting Running Tasks

Many operations in the command line version of Coreform Cubit can be interrupted using <Control>-C. Pressing <Control>-C will attempt to interrupt the running process as soon as feasible, returning the user back to the command line. Not all operations may be interrupted, and many can only be interrupted at certain stages. Any current tasks are canceled as soon as it is feasible to do so, including playback of journal files. The playback of a journal file is always stopped, even if the current running task cannot be interrupted. The journal file will stop at the next opportunity, when the current task is completed. Interrupted journal files may be resumed at the next command. See the section titled Controlling Playback of Journal Files for more information on controlling playback of journal files.

The GUI has a cancel button that can be used to interrupt the current command. The cancel button will turn red when a command can be interrupted. The cancel button has an 'x' on it, and is located on the status bar, which is at the bottom of the application.
