Bar Plot Visualization Options

Define visualization options for the bar plot.

Bar Plot

Select if the bar plot will show on nodes or elements. Select forces and moments that will display.

Force/Moment Diagram

Select forces and moments that will display. Select the plot direction.

Create Envelope

Activate the checkbox to create an envelope using multiple loadcases.

If the algebraic type is selected, the tool considers positive and negative values to build up maximum and minimum envelopes.

If the absolute type is selected, the tool considers absolute values to build up maximum and minimum envelopes.

Values inside parenthesis refer to the loadcase and simulation in that sequence.

Show values

Activate the checkbox to display values.

Size Scaling

Defines how bar plot vectors will be scaled for visualization.

Arrow Length (%)

Scales bar plot vectors for visualization.

Color

Change the color of forces and moments.

Vector heads

Defines if the bar plot vector points to a point or out of it.

Vector styles

Change the style of bar plot vectors.

Numeric format

Defines the numeric format of the values shown.

Tables

Creates tables with forces and moments for one or multiple free-body sections and for one or multiple loadcases.

The summary table shows all forces and moments for multiple free-body sections.
