Transform results in a selected solver output coordinate system

Coordinate systems defined in the solver output file are listed in the Post Processing Navigator beneath the Post View node. Coordinate systems are hidden by default. To transform results into a coordinate system defined in the solver output file:

1. Create a post view.

2. In the Post Processing Navigator, expand the Post View node.

3. Select the Result CSYS visibility check box, or expand the Result CSYS node and choose individual coordinate systems to display. Contour Plots Post view 3D Elements Solid(1) Result CSYS 1 - csys 2 - csys Use the visibility check boxes to control the visibility of result coordinate systems.The specified coordinate systems are displayed in the graphics window.

4. Choose a command that supports coordinate system selection:Choose Results tab→Post View group→Set Result .In the Post View dialog box, click the Display tab, and from the Display on list, choose Cutting Plane, and click Options.In the Post Processing Navigator, right-click a Post View node and choose Free Body Results.

5. Complete the dialog box as necessary to define parameters for your display.

6. From the Coordinate System list, choose Selected Rectangular, Selected Cylindrical, or Selected Spherical.

7. In the graphics window, click a coordinate system to select it.Note: You can select only coordinate systems of the same type that you specified. For example, if you choose Selected Cylindrical, you can select only cylindrical coordinate systems.

8. Click Apply to transform results into the selected coordinate system. The Result dialog box remains open so you can continue to adjust the display. Click OK to update the post view and exit the dialog box.
