Plot controls option

Plot controls option

Plot controls option

(OP)
I have done a 3-d model of a building for modal analysis. I want to make hard copies of all the shapes, but not manually.
So far i have succeeded just to plot the shapes, but i have problem with making copies of them. If somebody knows how can i make it using an input file, i really can use some help.
Thanks

RE: Plot controls option

You want to make hard copies?  Can you be more specific?

RE: Plot controls option

(OP)
I want to make a lot of pictures of my model with different scale for each modal shape, but not manualy. I try to write a macro for this but still can't find the right commands.

RE: Plot controls option

Well you might find the following commands helpful then:

*do, *enddo
/contour
set
/ui

That should really be just about everything you need to make a picture taking macro...easy enough i'd say.

RE: Plot controls option

(OP)
Thanks a lot!
The /contour and /ui comands I have missed so far. I hope this time it will be ok!
