Node plot

Node plot

Node plot

(OP)
How can I plot just nodes to check them in ABAQUS CAE?

RE: Node plot

To turn on the node number in viewer, in Version 6.6. the icon under Module called common option> labels tab> show node label.

RE: Node plot

(OP)
I used also this very uncomfortable mode. Does anybody know an option to plot the nodes without numbering?

RE: Node plot

Hi

In Viewer, go to "Options > Common" and select the "Labels" tab.  Check "Show Node Symbols".  This will then plot the requsted symbol at each node.

RE: Node plot

(OP)
Any other idea? How can I switch on during the mesh or load definition?

RE: Node plot

Ahh, you meant in CAE?

Just had a look and I can't see any way of showing the node labels during meshing.

Maybe you could try speaking ABAQUS?

Regards

Martin

RE: Node plot

In CAE, I don't think it is possible as it is not designed to.

RE: Node plot

To see the node/element labels in modules , other than CAE->Visualisation go to
CAE->Menu->View->Assembly Display Options->"Mesh" tab.

RE: Node plot

Yes there is.

View - Part Display Options - go to the Mesh tab and check the box "Show Node Labels"

RE: Node plot

I think the point is that you can plot the node numbers in CAE, but you can't plot the node symbols, even though you can plot node symbols in Viewer.

Martin

RE: Node plot

(OP)
Yes! That is my feeling also!

Irwin

RE: Node plot

Martin,

I think you are right.

Best.
