Field Function Plot dialog box

In Pre/Post, when you select Plot(XY) to plot a field, the Field Function Plot dialog box lets you define the bounds for the graph. If bounds are defined, the dialog box does not appear.

Abscissa
Variable	In Pre/Post, specifies the variable to use for the abscissa of the graph.In Motion, specifies the column of data from the external file to use for the abscissa of the graph. If you select the column used for Abscissa (X) in the Profile dialog box, the column used for Abscissa (Y) automatically appears in the Control Variables group, and vice versa.
Bounds	Appears when using Pre/Post, except for frequency-dependent forces that originate from a load recipe.Sets the range of the function. The bounds are used to define the abscissa values for the plot.MinimumSets the minimum value for the function.MaximumSets the maximum value for the function.Number of pointsSets the number of points used to calculate the function.
Control Variables
XYZ	Appear when using Pre/Post, except for frequency-dependent forces that originate from a load recipe.Sets fixed values for additional variables used in the graph.
frequency****node_id	Appears when using Pre/Post and frequency-dependent forces exist that originate from a load recipe.Sets fixed values for additional variables used in the graph.
Column name	Appears when using Motion.Sets the value along the control variable abscissa to use to create the cross section of the 3D surface.
