Nodal Force Report Extraction dialog box

Nodal Force Report
Name	Lists the nodal force reports that you can select. The software extracts results for the margin of safety calculation from the selected nodal force report.
Add	Shows the status of the Add all Forces and Moments check box in the Nodal Force Report dialog box.
Step	Shows the setting specified in the Step list in the Nodal Force Report dialog box.
Create Nodal Force Report	Opens the dialog box to create a nodal force report.
Edit Nodal Force Report	Available when a nodal force report is selected in the table.Opens the selected nodal force report for editing.
Selection
Result Type	Sets the result type to use in the calculation.
Component	Sets the component or derived quantity of the result type to use in the calculation.XX-component of the force or momentYY-component of the force or momentZZ-component of the force or momentPlanar Magnitude XYVector sum of the X and Y-components of the forcePlanar Magnitude XZVector sum of the X and Z-components of the forcePlanar Magnitude YZVector sum of the Y and Z-components of the forceMagnitudeVector sum of the X, Y, and Z-components of the force
Operations
Filtering	Specifies the values that you want to be considered for the margin of safety calculation.RangeUse to restrict the values to those that lie within the specified range.**Only Positive Values (> = 0)**Use to restrict the values to positive values and zero.**Only Negative Values (< = 0)**Use to restrict the values to negative values and zero.Note: The software processes the Filtering and Absolute Values commands sequentially with filtering first.
Absolute Values	Specifies whether you want to convert negative values that are considered for the margin of safety calculation to positive values.
Conversion	Available when the software recognizes an incompatibility between the result type that you select and the result type the method requires.Specifies the multiplier or divisor that corrects for the incompatibility between the result type that you select and the result type the method requires.For more information, see Extracting a single value from the set of results (margin of safety).
Factor	When the Conversion box is available, specifies a multiplier that scales the result that is used in the margin of safety calculation.When the Conversion box is unavailable, specifies a multiplier that scales the result that is used in the margin of safety calculation, and, specifies a multiplier that corrects for any dimensional or unit incompatibility between the result type that you select and the result type the method requires.For more information, see Extracting a single value from the set of results (margin of safety).
Preview
Include Nodal Force Report Information	Select to include the nodal force report results in the preview window.
Preview	Available when a nodal force report is selected in the table.Opens an information window that lists the aggregated value that is used in the margin of safety calculation.
