Static Output Processor Plot Tools toolbar: Displacement
Shortcut key: CTRL+SHIFT+D
Turns the display of displacements on or off. This option also controls the display of displacements on CNode restraints.
When Displacements is turned on, the software displays:
-
A directional arrow for the resultant linear displacement vector.
-
A directional arrow and curved arrow (following the right-hand rule) for the resultant rotational displacement vector.
-
A pair of shorter directional arrows for Fixed linear displacement. (Disp. Value = 0)
-
A pair of shorter directional arrows with curved arrows for Fixed rotational displacement.
-
A directional arrow with a sphere at the top for non-fixed displacement which indicates hidden fixed vectors.
-
A directional arrow and curved arrow (following the right-hand rule) with a sphere at the top for the resultant rotational non-fixed displacement which indicates hidden fixed vectors.
On the toolbar, you can also specify:
-
The arrow size - Largest, Larger, Medium, Smaller, or Smallest.
-
Whether to hide or show fixed displacements - Show Fixed.
-
The vector to display - Vector1, Vector2, and so on.
Hover the cursor over displacement arrows to see the displacement values for the displayed vector:
Where a restraint has a CNode with displacement, the displacements are displayed with values displayed with the Node number:
You can change the default arrow color in the Graphics Settings of the Configuration Editor or by using Plot Properties 
. For more information, see Displacements and Display Options Toolbar .
