(faster) (for large plate or solid model)
Represent a simplified contour for a large model using plate or solid elements

Extrude
Where plate elements or solid elements along a cutting plane are represented
in contour, a three dimensional contour is created. The positive direction
of the analysis results is oriented in the z-axis direction of the local
element coordinate system.
The option is not concurrently applicable with the Deformed Shape option.
Similarly, the option cannot be concurrently applied to the cases where
the Hidden option is used to display plate element thicknesses or the
Both option is used to represent Top & Bottom member forces (stresses).

Real Displacement
(Auto-Scale off): The true deformation of the structure is graphically
represented without magnifying or reducing it. This option is typically
used for geometric nonlinear analysis reflecting large displacement.
Relative
Displacement: The deformation of the structure is graphically represented
relative to the minimum nodal displacement, which is set to "0"
Values

from Heat of Hydration analysis in numerical values.
The font and color of the numbers can be
controlled in Display
Option.

Display orientation of numerical values.
Note
The default Decimal Points can be controlled in "Preferences".
Set Orientation = 0 horizontally displays the numerical values to the right
of nodes or elements.
The orientation angle represents the counter-clockwise direction, which
may be used to enhance the readability of the numbers.
Legend
Display various references related to analysis
results to the right or left of the working window.
Legend Position:
Position of the legend in the display window
Rank Value
Type: Specify a type of values in the Legend and the number of
decimal points.

Dynamically simulate the time dependent crack
ratios of the solid elements resulting from Heat of Hydration analysis.
Click Apply then click Record to the right of the Animation control board at the
bottom of the working window.

Model Outline
Outline (highlight) the solid element model using the following options

or Free Face/Edge of Element under the Print Color Tab.
Free Face:
Draw the outline of all the faces that are not in contact with other solid
elements.
Free Edge: Draw only the outline of the edges that are not in contact
with other solid elements.
Note
IsoSurface may be used in conjunction with the Animate Option. If one IsoSurface
value is entered, the planes of equal crack ratios are animated within
the range of the crack ratio value and the maximum crack ratio value.
If two or more crack ratio values are entered, the range of animation
starts from the crack ratio level that is lowest of all the values to
the maximum value.
