Plots in APDL

Plots in APDL

Plots in APDL

(OP)
Hello everyone,

Please see the attached image. I am using the batch file option to create such plots. Anyone knows why the plot is turning out distorted?

/SHOW,TIFF,,0
TIFF,COMP,1
TIFF,ORIENT,HORIZ
TIFF,COLOR,2
TIFF,TMOD,1
/GFILE,1200,
/REPLOT
/SHOW,CLOSE

Best regards,

RE: Plots in APDL

Looks like these are 2D elements and you might have the thicknesses turned on. Try "ESHAPE, off" and then "REPLOT" to see if that makes things look better.

Hi Chris,

It was a shading problem. I changed '/SHADE,ALL,1' to '/SHADE,ALL,0' (or '/SHADE,ALL,2'). It works fine now.
