Ranges:
Define the contour ranges.
: Assign the color distribution
range of contour. Using the function, specific colors for specific ranges
can be assigned.
Note
Contour Range Max/Min values can be larger than the max/min output values.
If the
Contour Range values exceed the output values, they are entered at Rank
0 and Rank 11.
Number of
Colors: Assign the number of colors to be included in the contour
(select among 6, 12, 18, 24 colors)
Colors:
Assign or control the colors of the contour.
Color Table:
Assign the type of Colors.
: Control the colors by zones
in the contour.
Reverse
Contour: Check on to reverse the sequence of color variation in
the contour.
Contour
Line: Assign the boundary line color of the contour
Element
Edge: Assign the color of element edges while displaying the contour
Contour
Options: Specify options for contour representation
Contour Fill
Gradient
Fill: Display color gradient (shading) in the contour.
Draw Contour Lines: Display color boundaries in the contour.
Draw Contour
Line Only
Display only the colored boundaries of the contour.
Mono line:
Display the boundaries of the contour in a mono color.
Contour
Annotation
Legend or annotation signifying the ranges of the contour is displayed.
Spacing:
Specify the spacing of the legend or annotation.
Coarse Contour
(faster) (for large plate or solid
model)
Represent a simplified contour for a large model using plate or solid elements
in order to reduce the time required to represent a complete contour.
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). |
