Errors

No error codes.

You are prompted if model/results are not loaded on the active window.

If no argument(s)/wrong argument(s) is supplied to the command, then the usage of the command is output based on the level of error.

Examples

Example 1
To set the edge mode for all components:
sty pid edg all
Example 2
To set the boundary mode for components 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8:
sty pid bou 1-3 5-7 8
Example 3
To contour the X component of the displacement:
sty int uno all
Example 4
To contour elemental results for the currently selected data type:
sty fun ele all

Comments

To use the sty function command, the data type should be set by using the rea function command.
