Two function plots

Video: Plot one result against another result

Use the Two Function Plot dialog box to plot one result against another. You can create a two function plot of results along a path, or for one or more nodes or elements across iterations.

Before you can access the Two Function Plot dialog box, you must:

  1. Set up a multiple viewport layout.

  2. Create two post views, one for each result to examine.

  3. In the graphics window or the Post Processing Navigator, hold Ctrl and click to select both post views.

With both post views selected, choose Results tab→ToolsCreate Graph .
