StreamlineMultislice
Create a streamline multislice plot.
Syntax
model.result(<pgtag>).create(<ftag>,"StreamlineMultislice");
model.result(<pgtag>).feature(<ftag>).selection(...);
model.result(<pgtag>).feature(<ftag>).set(property, <value>);
model.result(<pgtag>).feature(<ftag>).run();
Description
model.result(<pgtag>).create(<ftag>,"StreamlineMultislice") creates a streamline multislice plot feature named <ftag> belonging to the plot group <pgtag>.
Streamline plots visualize a vector quantity as streamlines on slices. A streamline is a curve everywhere tangent to an instantaneous vector field. Streamline multislice plots are available in 3D plot groups.
The following properties are available:
equalarc | equaltime | equalinvtime
normalized | proportional | logarithmic
arrow | arrowhead | cone
on | off
custom | black | blue | cyan | gray | green | magenta | red | white | yellow
none | parent | dataset name
The description of the expression in expr. Is used in the automatic title.
on | off
on | off
linpoint | harmonic | lintotal | lintotalavg | lintotalrms | lintotalpeak
If inheritplot is not none: Determines if arrow scale is inherited.
If inheritplot is not none: Determines if the color is inherited.
If inheritplot is not none: Determines if the deformation scale is inherited.
If inheritplot is not none: Determines if the color and data ranges are inherited.
none | plot name
If inheritplot is not none and linetype is tube or ribbon: Determines if the tube or ribbon scale is inherited.
Time corresponding to last selected solnum for transient levels.
The time to use, for transient levels. Available when data is not parent and the underlying data is transient.
line | tube | none
If arrowlength is logarithmic: The ratio between the maximum arrow length and the arrow length below which no arrow is drawn.
The index of the solution to use, per level, or interp, but only for transient solutions. Available when data is not parent and the underlying data has multiple solutions.
manual | automatic
The density of the streamlines. Active when posmethod is set to magnitude.
number | coord
number | coord
number | coord
on | off
on when vector field should be normalized.
cutplane | cartesian
magnitude | start | uniform
off | pprint | ppr
The element refinement to use, if resolution is set to manual. Bear in mind that this is the refinement used for the base dataset, so the number of elements in the model can increase radically if the plot uses, for example, a revolve dataset.
norefine | coarse | normal | fine | finer | extrafine | custom
none | material | internal | everywhere | expression
Smoothing settings. With material, smoothing is done inside domains with the same material. With internal, smoothing is done inside geometry domains. With expression, the smoothing is based on the expression in smoothexpr.
The expression to use for smoothing when smooth is set to expression.
The index of the solution to use. Available when data is not parent and the underlying data has multiple solutions.
solnum | solutioninfo
manual | parent
If data is a local dataset with nontrivial data, specify solutions manually or take them from the parent plot group.
The time to use, for transient problems. Available when data is not parent and the underlying data is transient.
manual | none
Threshold value (0–1), if threshold is set to manual.
on | off
on if t is used to determine time steps; off if solnum is used.
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
manual | automatic
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.
Number of planes in the x direction. Active when multiplanexmethod is set to number.
Number of planes in the y direction. Active when multiplaneymethod is set to number.
Number of planes in the z direction. Active when multiplanezmethod is set to number.
