/SMBC, Mode
Controls the display of solid model boundary condition
symbols and labels.
Mode
CENT | — | Solid model boundary condition symbols and labels appear at the centroid of the solid model entity (default). |
TESS | — | Solid model boundary condition symbols and labels appear inside each constituent element of the tessellation. |
Mode
= CENT is designed to reduce
the clutter of boundary condition symbols in solid model plots. For
example, if you have assigned normal pressure loads to an area, you
may choose to display the pressures as arrows with the /PSF command using /PSF,PRES,NORM,2. When Mode
= CENT, the pressure arrow is displayed at the
centroid of the area. When Mode
= TESS,
a pressure arrow is displayed at the centroid of each polygon of the
area's tessellation.
This command is valid in any processor.
