Creo Simulate evaluates the measure quantity at the application point only. Thus, the quantity reported for the measure is specific to the point and contains no direct information on the area immediately surrounding the point.

However, you can make inferences about the surrounding area by looking at a fringe plot for the desired measure quantity and performing a dynamic query. For information about fringe plots, see Fringe Display Type.

Point measure applied on top or bottom surface of the midsurface shell is projected to the compressed geometry and is equivalent to a point measure applied on the shell idealization.
