10.6.3. Choosing the Display Used for Plots
When you are displaying either the ELEM or GRPH entity type, you can control the type of element or
graph display used for plots. T o do so, use either of the following:
Command(s):/GCMD,WN,Lab1,...Lab12
GUI: Utility Menu> PlotCtrls> Multi-Plot Controls
You can specify ALL to have all windows use the selected display type, or you can apply that display
type only to a specific window (default is window 1).The Lab1 through Lab12 values shown above
are labels for commands such as /TYPE and PLNSOL,S,X. (For the Lab arguments, you can specify only
commands that have WN (window) arguments.)
Issuing the /GCMD command is the same as choosing the GUI path shown above, then choosing either
Entity plots or Graph plots for the Display Type field.
Following are two command-based examples of selecting a type of element or graph display.
- To display a PLNSOL,S,X command in window 1 when the ELEM entity type is activated, issue the
command /GCMD,1,PLNS,S,X. - To change from an element display to a von Mises display, issue the command /GCMD,1,PLNS,S,EQV.
10.6.4. Displaying Selected Entities
To display the entities you selected, issue the GPLOT command (Utility Menu> PlotCtrls> Multi-Plots
or Utility Menu> Plot> Replot).
