Ploting sheet thickness in deep-drawing process

Ploting sheet thickness in deep-drawing process

Ploting sheet thickness in deep-drawing process

(OP)
Hello everybody,

I'm simulating a deep-drawing process with an aluminium sheet with a thickness of 2mm. I want to plot the thickness over a path starting in the middle of the cup and ending at the flange.
I'm simulating 1/4 of the whole model to save time.
My settings in the Field Output Requests Manager can be seen in the attached picture 1.
I have created a path already and I tried to plot the thickness, but I can't find STH in the "XY Data Manager". In "XY Data from path" I chose "true distance" for X Values but for Y Values I don't know what to chose.

I would appreciate if anybody could give me a hint how to plot the sheet thickness along the path.

Thank you in advance.
