Graph Type

Vs Position

Plots results along a path for one or more result cases.

Path may be defined as a straight line or as the intersection of the model with a cutting plane. The path does not need to be along a line of nodes; values are interpolated along element edges intersected by the line or cutting plane.

Each result case selected defines a new line.
Vs Result Case

Plots results at a specific entity as a function of result case, which may be load increments, time steps or frequency steps.

Results may be plotted at nodes, element centroids, or at specific Gauss points.
Vs Series of Points

Plots results at an ordered series of 'points', for one or more result cases.

Here, 'point' may be a node or an element. Nodes or entities are selected one by one by entering entity numbers in the text box, or by clicking the model window to retrieve entity numbers.

Each result case selected defines a new line.
