vscale#
- Mapdl.vscale(wn='', vratio='', key='', **kwargs)#
Scales the length of displayed vectors.
APDL Command: /VSCALE
- Parameters:
- wn
Window number (or ALL) to which command applies (defaults to 1).
- vratio
Ratio value applied to the automatically calculated scale factor (defaults to 1.0, i.e., use scale factor as automatically calculated).
- key
Relative scaling key:
- 0
Use relative length scaling among vectors based on magnitudes.
- 1
Use uniform length scaling for all vector lengths.
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 (i.e., /PSYMB,ESYS) and the nodal (i.e., /PSYMB,NDIR) coordinate system symbols.
This command is valid in any processor.
