- Editing a Result Plot
After generating a plot for the desired result, you can change one or more display options of the plot.
- Animation PropertyManager
The Animation PropertyManager enables you to animate a plot and save the animation as an .avi file.
- Creating Section Plots
- Copying a Result Plot Between Studies
- Compare Results PropertyManager
You can display multiple results simultaneously in split windows. You can also plot and compare results between different Simulation studies. The Compare Results tool provides another way to compare plots in one or more studies.
- Chart Options PropertyManager
Use the Chart Options PropertyManager to set the parameters that control the look of the legend in a plot.
- Axes Dialog Box
The Axes dialog box lets you control the appearance of the axes while viewing the results. The axes represent the global or local coordinate system used in the plot definition.
- Iso Clipping PropertyManager
The Iso Clipping PropertyManager allows you to view surfaces of a specified value of the plotted result. You can create up to six surfaces simultaneously.
- Vector Plot Options PropertyManager
The Vector Plot Options PropertyManager allows you to control the appearance of the vector symbols in a vector plot dynamically.
- Settings PropertyManager
The Settings PropertyManager allows you to control the display of the fringe plot, the display of the model boundary, and the display of the deformed shape of the model.
- Annotating Extreme Values on a Plot
You can annotate locations of extreme values in result plots. The program shows the numerical values and creates leaders to the corresponding locations automatically.
- Associating a Named View with a Plot
You can associate a plot with a named view orientation. When you double-click the plot or include it in a report, it appears in its associated view.
- Saving Result Plots
You can save result plots in different formats.
- Printing Result Plots
- Displaying the Undeformed Shape of a Model on a Result Plot
For structural studies, you can superimpose the undeformed shape, with controlled transparency, for results plotted on the deformed shape.
- Showing Hidden or Excluded Bodies in Plots
When plotting results of assemblies with hidden or excluded bodies, you can view the results on the other components in the context of the whole assembly by showing the hidden or excluded bodies in translucent colors with controlled levels of transparency.
