Example of Deformed Shape presentation


Deformed Shape is a type of field presentation when vector values corresponding to the cells of the mesh are visualized by shifting of these cells.

To create a Deformed Shape presentation:

– Right-click on one of the time stamps of the field in the Object browser and from the pop-up menu choose Deformed Shape, or
– Click on one of the time stamps of the field in the Object browser and select from the main menu Visualization > Deformed Shape, or click "Deformed Shape" icon in the Visualization Toolbar.

  • Deformed Shape tab allows to set additional parameters of your Deformed Shape presentation:
    • Scale Factor: visualization scaling of all vector values applied to the cells of the mesh.
    • Magnitude coloring check box: this option allows to color your presentation according the scalar range defined in Scalar Bar properties or to display it using only one color (this color is taken by default).
  • Scalar Bar tab allows to define the parameters of the scalar bar displayed with this presentation (see also).

After you have finished with setting these parameters, click OK. Your presentation with scalar bar will be immediately displayed in the viewer.
