For 2D and 2D axisymmetric components, the View node has an
Axis (
) subnode where you specify axis limits and grid spacing, and control the view scale (aspect ratio) for the plots.
Enter x minimum,
x maximum,
y minimum, and
y maximum values for the axis limits.
The default setting in the View scale list is
None, which makes the increments equal in the
x and
y directions. Select
Automatic to make the geometry fill the graphics window with unequal increments. This can be useful when working with thin and slender geometries. Select
Manual to specify the view scale in the
x scale and
y scale text fields. Equal values, such as 1, make the geometries appear with the correct aspect ratio. The default values represent the view scale of the previous setting in the
View scale list.
Select the Manual spacing check box and enter
x spacing and
y spacing values to control the grid spacing manually. Enter
Extra x and
Extra y values directly or click the
Range button (
) as needed.
