Evaluate Strain Gages dialog box

Response Gages
Selection Method	Filters how you can select strain gages to evaluate.List Selection — Lets you select one or more strain gages from a list. Graphical Selection — Lets you select individual strain gages in the graphics window.
Elements IDs	Available when Selection Method is set to List Selection.The available strain gages you can select to evaluate. Hold Ctrl to select more than one strain gage.
Select Object	Lets you select the strain gages on the model where you want to generate response functions.
Response Request
Data Component	Determines the direction for the evaluation in the strain gage local coordinate system. The strain gage icon identifies Leg1 with an arrow. Moving clockwise, Leg2 is the next leg, and then Leg3. The arrow also identifies the X direction. For more information about data components, see Vector and tensor components and invariants.
Output Setting
Store to AFU	Saves the generated response function(s) to an AFU file. The AFU file is created automatically with the same name as your simulation file, in the working directory where your simulation file is located.
XY Graphing	Plots the response function as an XY graph in the graphics window.
Record Name Prefix	A descriptive prefix that identifies the generated function records in the AFU file in which they are saved.
