ansys.mapdl.core.Mapdl.vscale#
- Mapdl.vscale(wn='', vratio='', key='', **kwargs)#
Scales the length of displayed vectors.
Mechanical APDL Command: /VSCALE
- Parameters:
- wn
str
Window number (or ALL) to which command applies (defaults to 1).
- vratio
str
Ratio value applied to the automatically calculated scale factor (defaults to 1.0, that is, use scale factor as automatically calculated).
- key
int
orstr
Relative scaling key:
0
- Use relative length scaling among vectors based on magnitudes.1
- Use uniform length scaling for all vector lengths.
- wn
Notes
Allows scaling of the vector length displayed with the plvect command of POST1 and the pbc and psf commands. Also allows the scaling of the element (that is, psymb ,ESYS) and the nodal (that is, psymb,NDIR) coordinate system symbols.
This command is valid in any processor.
