Invalid Data Components and Entity Types
Invalid Data Components and Entity Types
If the Scalar 1 and Scalar 2 data components are defined and one of them is not valid for a plotting mode then that data component will automatically be omitted from the contour bar and min/max values.



SI plot shows both Max Principal Stress + Beam Axial Force

PR plot only show Max Principal Stress

DP plot only shows Beam Axial Force
If a data component is setup that is valid but no elements are drawn or contoured using that data component then the component will still be shown on the contour bar but the values will be displayed as N/C to show that nothing was computed for that component.



SI plot, N/C shown for Scalar 1 as all the shells are being contoured using Scalar 2 Von Mises Stress
