Generating a Point Evolution Graph

This feature allows users to generate a graph showing temporal evolution of a result at user-defined point:

1. Select a mesh with results from the list of meshes shown at the top left side of the window by clicking on its name. Alternatively, users can also select the mesh by using the selection mode on the Views toolbar and clicking on the mesh rendered on the screen.

2. Introduce the (X,Y,Z) coordinates of the point in the Add Point input field. Note that the line needs to lay inside or on the mesh selected in previous step.

3. Use the Variable pull-down menu to select the result/varaible that you would like to get the line variation from.

4. If the Variable selected contains more than one component, select a component from the Component pull-down menu.

5. Click Apply button.

6. A graph that contains the temporal evolution of the result at the defined point is generated and available at the Graphs accordion of the working project/scenario.
