The Time History Graph PropertyManager allows you to generate a 2D graph of the results at certain locations. Time history graphs are available for nonlinear, drop test, and modal time history analyses.
For transient thermal studies, use the probe tool to create time history graphs at certain locations.
Response
| Predefined locations |
Lists the vertices and reference points you defined as Workflow sensitive sensors. |
| All nodes |
Lists all nodes in the model. Available only if you did not select vertices or reference points in the Result Options PropertyManager before running the study.
Use the Probe PropertyManager to identify node locations.
