Viewing Results
After running the analysis, the software generates customizable default result plots. You can view a
plot by double-clicking its icon in the Simulation study tree.
You can also define other plots by right-clicking a result folder and
selecting Define. When defining
plots, you can use reference coordinate systems. For example, you can
view radial and tangential stresses by selecting an axis when defining
stress plots. You can associate result plots with named views.
Result viewing tools include fringe plots, section plots, iso plots,
animation, probing, and exploded views. For sections plots, you can choose
planar, cylindrical, and/or spherical cutting tools. A clipping utility
is provided for convenient viewing of section and iso plots.
For more information, refer to the Viewing
Results section.
Generating Reports
You can generate a structured Internet-ready report that includes all
available plots automatically. The Report wizard guides you to customize
the report and include result plots. To start the Report
wizard, right-click the Report
folder and select Define.
Saving Result Plots
You can save result plots in eDrawing,
bitmap, JPEG, VRML, XGL,
and ZGL formats. You can save animations
as AVI video files. You can include result plots automatically in the
study report. To save a plot in any of these formats, right-click the
plot icon and select Save As.
To save all plots in the JPEG format, select Automatically
update all plots in JPEG files in the Report dialog box.
