lplot#

Mapdl.lplot(nl1='', nl2='', ninc='', vtk=None, show_line_numbering=True, show_keypoint_numbering=False, color_lines=False, **kwargs)[source]#

Display the selected lines.

APDL Command: LPLOT

Note

PyMAPDL plotting commands with vtk=True ignore any values set with the PNUM command.

Parameters:
nl1, nl2, ninc

Display lines from NL1 to NL2 (defaults to NL1) in steps of NINC (defaults to 1). If NL1 = ALL (default), NL2 and NINC are ignored and display all selected lines [LSEL].

vtkbool, optional

Plot the currently selected lines using pyvista.

show_line_numberingbool, optional

Display line and keypoint numbers when vtk=True.

show_keypoint_numberingbool, optional

Number keypoints. Only valid when show_keypoints=True

**kwargs

See ansys.mapdl.core.plotting.general_plotter() for more keyword arguments applicable when visualizing with vtk=True.

Notes

Mesh divisions on plotted lines are controlled by the ldiv option of the psymb command when vtk=False. Otherwise, line divisions are controlled automatically.

This command is valid in any processor.

Examples

>>> mapdl.lplot(vtk=True, cpos='xy', line_width=10)
