Viewing Global Results
Viewing Global Results
Global results are calculated for every study that is run. When a study run completes, global results are available and can be viewed in the Graphics Window using one of the following methods:.
• Click > to display the results on the model in the Graphics Window.
• From the Simulation Tree, select > . Right-click 
to activate the results. The results are shown on the model in the Graphics Window.
to activate the results. The results are shown on the model in the Graphics Window.Select the global result quantity you want to view from the results legend.
Results Mini Toolbar
Global results are displayed along with a mini toolbar that contains the following commands:.
•

Toggles between displaying deformed or undeformed results. By default deformed results are displayed.
Toggles between displaying deformed or undeformed results. By default deformed results are displayed.The following figure shows how the undeformed results and deformed results that are scaled with different values appear.
Model | Undeformed Results | Deformed Results with Autoscale = 1 | Deformed Results with Autoscale = 5 |

Click the arrow next to , to use the following additional options for deformed results:
, to use the following additional options for deformed results:◦ Autoscale—Default option. Select a fixed value from the adjoining list as a scaling factor for the deformed results.
◦ Deformation Scale—Specify a positive real number as a scaling factor for the deformed results where a value of 1 indicates no scaling, or a true result.
• The following options control the display of animated results:
◦ 
Start—Starts animation of deformation results.
