vplot

Volumes.vplot(nv1='', nv2='', ninc='', degen='', scale='', **kwargs)

Displays the selected volumes.

Mechanical APDL Command: VPLOT

Parameters:

nv1str

Display volumes from NV1 to NV2 (defaults to NV1 ) in steps of NINC (defaults to 1). If NV1 = ALL (default), NV2 and NINC are ignored and all selected volumes ( vsel ) are displayed.

nv2str

Display volumes from NV1 to NV2 (defaults to NV1 ) in steps of NINC (defaults to 1). If NV1 = ALL (default), NV2 and NINC are ignored and all selected volumes ( vsel ) are displayed.

nincstr

Display volumes from NV1 to NV2 (defaults to NV1 ) in steps of NINC (defaults to 1). If NV1 = ALL (default), NV2 and NINC are ignored and all selected volumes ( vsel ) 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

Displays selected volumes. (Only volumes having areas within the selected area set ( asel ) will be plotted.) With PowerGraphics on ( graphics,POWER), vplot will display only the currently selected areas. This command is also a utility command, valid anywhere. The degree of tessellation used to plot the volumes is set through the facet command.
