VPLOT

VPLOT, NV1, NV2, NINC, DEGEN, SCALE
Displays the selected volumes.

Compatible Products: – | Pro | Premium | Enterprise | Ent PP | Ent Solver | DYNA

NV1, NV2, NINC

Display volumes from NV1 to NV2 (defaults to NV1) in steps of NINC (defaults to 1). If NV1 = ALL (default), NV2 and NINC are ignored and all selected volumes [VSEL] are displayed.

DEGEN

Degeneracy marker:

(blank)

 — 

No degeneracy marker is used (default).

DEGE

 — 

A red star is placed on keypoints at degeneracies (see the Modeling and Meshing Guide). Not available if /FACET,WIRE is set.

SCALE

Scale factor for the size of the degeneracy-marker star. The scale is the size in window space (-1 to 1 in both directions) (defaults to .075).

Notes

Displays selected volumes. (Only volumes having areas within the selected area set [ASEL] will be plotted.) With PowerGraphics on [/GRAPHICS,POWER], VPLOT will display only the currently selected areas. This command is also a utility command, valid anywhere. The degree of tessellation used to plot the volumes is set through the /FACET command.
