Edit 2D matrix plot display

This example shows how to edit 2D matrix plot for modal assurance criteria (MAC) results.

Edit display properties of the axes and the color bar

1. To edit the 2D matrix plot, in the graphing window, double-click the color bar.

2. In the Color-axis Options dialog box, in the Color Control group, from the Spectrum Type list, choose Structural. For more information how to edit an objects on the graph, see Edit display properties of a graph objects.

Edit display properties of the matrix plot

1. To edit the grid display of the 2D matrix plot, do one of the following:To edit the grid display of the 2D matrix plot in the main window, choose Results tab→Function Plot→Grid Options .To edit the grid display of the 2D matrix plot in the separate graphics window, expand the Toolbar, open the first drop-down list on the left, and choose Grid Options .

2. In the Grid Options dialog box, from the XY Plane list, select Grid Only.

3. Click OK.

4. To zoom the 2D matrix plot, do one of the following:To zoom the 2D matrix plot in the main window, choose Results tab→Function Plot→Zoom by Rectangle .To zoom the 2D matrix plot in the separate graphics window, in Toolbar, expand the Zoom group and choose Zoom by Rectangle .

5. With the box on the plot, pick the number of rows and column to zoom in.

Display underflow and overflow results

You can display matrix values that are below or above a limit.

1. To edit the 2D matrix plot, in the graphing window, double-click the color bar.

2. In the Color-axis Options dialog box, on the Limits tab, in the Limits Type group, select Fixed Limits.

3. In the Limits group, in the Lower Limit and Upper Limit boxes, set the values for lower and upper result limits.

4. In the Result Color group, from the Color of Overflow Result and Color of Underflow Result lists, select Shaded.

5. Click OK.
