D3PLOT Show Force Output Coordinate System By default the forces for a *DATABASE_CROSS_SECTION are written out using the global cartesian coordinate system but this can be modified by changing the parameters ID and ITYPE on the *DATABASE_CROSS_SECTION card. This option can be used to display a triad at the cross section centroid which shows the coordinate system for force output. Using information from the ZTF file D3PLOT will update the triad if the local coordinate system is defined using either an accelerometer or a rigid body which moves during the analysis. 9.15 SPC Symbols These option controls the size of the symbols used to draw and contour SPC’s. SPC’s are contoured as a single colours square on the nodes they are located at. Only the nodes with an SPC on are contoured so it is easy to see which nodes have an SPC with zero force and which nodes don’t have an SPC. Page 9.26 User manual Version 12.0, October 2014
