Additional Information

Let us consider an example that demonstrates how the foldKeepFolds environment variable can be used to selectively fold individual folds of an instance.

Let us assume that an instance has folds I0.1 and I0.2 with w = 3u. Let us assume that with the foldKeepFolds environment variable set to true, we select I0.2 and fold it into 2 using:

lxFold(geGetSelSet() 5:5 2)

In this case:

• The original fold, I0.1 remains untouched.
• Fold I0.2 is further folded into I0.2 and I0.3 with the width of each new fold set to w = 1.5u, and the new folds are placed at 5:5.
