Deform
Add a deformation attribute to a plot.
Syntax
model.result(<pgtag>).feature(<ftag>).create(<atag>,"Deform");
model.result(<pgtag>).feature(<ftag>).feature(<atag>).set(property, <value>);
Description
model.result(<pgtag>).feature(<ftag>).create(<atag>,"Deform") creates a deformation attribute feature with the name <atag>, belonging to the feature <ftag>.
Deformation attributes deform the coordinates of a plot feature according to an expression (typically, the displacement in a structural mechanics model). The deformation attribute can be added to arrow plots, contour plots, isosurface plots, particle plots, slice plots, streamline and streamline surface plots, surface plots, volume plots, and mesh plots.
The following properties are available:
The description of the expression in expr. Is used in the automatic title.
on | off
on | off
linpoint | harmonic | lintotal | lintotalavg | lintotalrms | lintotalpeak
cylindrical | cartesian
on | off
The title to use when titletype is manual.
auto | custom | label | manual | none
auto, if the title should be computed automatically. custom, if the title should be computed automatically, but customized. label, if the title should be the plot group’s label. manual, if the manual title should be used (the title property). none, if no title should be displayed.
on | off
The unit to use for the expression in expr. If the old unit is not valid when the expression changes, the unit property is reset to default.
