Open the Add Predefined Plot window to add plots that are predefined by the physics interfaces in the model but not added directly when you compute the solution. You can open the Add Predefined Plot window () from the Results section in the Home toolbar and from the Windows menu.

In the Add Predefined Plot window, the available plots are organized in a tree structure. Select the plot that you want to add. Then right-click and choose Add Plot, or click the Add Plot button at the top of the window. You can also type a search string in the text field above the plot tree. Click Search to filter the tree to only show plots that match the search string.

You can add your own favorite plots to the Add Predefined Plot window for reuse in other models. When you have made a plot that you would like to reuse, select Add as Predefined Plot () in the context menu for plot group and evaluation group nodes and for nodes. It is available for plot group nodes, Evaluation Group nodes and nodes under Derived Values. You can also choose Add as Predefined Plot from group nodes, if you have added plots under a group node, for example. The plot then shows up in the Add Predefined Plot window under User-Defined (), using the same group structure, if applicable. You can sort the predefined plots using the Move Up and Move Down options on the predefined plots’ context menus. When adding a predefined plot to the model tree, the COMSOL software tries to find the same type of solution dataset that was used when the plot was made. For example, a plot made using a time-dependent solution tries to use a time-dependent solution dataset if there is one in the model. The software also tries to find a correct expression even if the physics in the model has another scope or other dependent variable names than the one in the original model.
