aplot

Areas.aplot(na1='', na2='', ninc='', degen='', scale='', **kwargs)

Displays the selected areas.

Mechanical APDL Command: APLOT

Parameters:

na1str

Displays areas from NA1 to NA2 (defaults to NA1 ) in steps of NINC (defaults to 1). If NA1 = ALL (default), NA2 and NINC are ignored and all selected areas ( asel ) are displayed.

na2str

Displays areas from NA1 to NA2 (defaults to NA1 ) in steps of NINC (defaults to 1). If NA1 = ALL (default), NA2 and NINC are ignored and all selected areas ( asel ) are displayed.

nincstr

Displays areas from NA1 to NA2 (defaults to NA1 ) in steps of NINC (defaults to 1). If NA1 = ALL (default), NA2 and NINC are ignored and all selected areas ( asel ) are displayed.

degenstr

Degeneracy marker:

• (blank) - No degeneracy marker is used (default).

• DEGE - A red star is placed on keypoints at degeneracies (see the Modeling and Meshing Guide ). Not available if facet,WIRE is set.

scalestr

Scale factor for the size of the degeneracy-marker star. The scale is the size in window space (-1 to 1 in both directions) (defaults to.075).

Notes

This command is valid in any processor. The degree of tessellation used to plot the selected areas is set through the facet command.
