Plot Mode Shapes dialog box

Layout
Layout	Specifies the layout to visually compare paired work and reference mode shapes.Side-by-SideDisplays the mode shape of the reference model in the left viewport of the graphics window and the mode shape of the work model in the right viewport.OverlayDisplays the mode shape of the reference and the work models in a single viewport.
Display
Display	Specifies the method to display the paired work and reference mode shapes.DisplayDisplays mode shapes as an image.AnimationDisplays mode shapes as an animation.
Save Frames In Memory	Available when Display is set to Animation.Saves the number of animation frames produced, which results in a smoother animation after the first cycle. This option is especially useful when an animation requires considerable time to load each frame.
Matrix Display
Available when you display mode shapes in the main graphics window.
Keep Visible	Ensures that the matrix remains visible in the graphics window.
Work Model Display
Work Model Display	Specifies the method to display the work mode shapes.Work Model MeshDisplays mode shapes using the work model mesh.WireframeDisplays mode shapes using the test model wireframe mapped to the work model nodes.
Complex Options
Available only for a test-analysis correlation solution process.
Complex	Specifies how the complex reference and wireframe work mode shapes are displayed:AmplitudeDisplays the absolute value of the magnitude of the complex results.Signed AmplitudeDisplays the positive or negative value of the magnitude of the complex results.RealDisplays the real part of the complex results.ImaginaryDisplays the imaginary part of the complex results.At Phase AngleDisplays the value of complex results at the phase angle that you specify in the Offset Angle box.When you click Compute Phase, the software computes the phase offset angle that optimizes the match between the reference and work mode shapes.
