  Plotting the Mesh   

Setting Mesh Plot Attributes

1. Select the Mesh Plots icon under Field Overlays in the Project tree, right-click, and select Modify Attributes to display the Mesh Plots dialog.

You can also click HFSS or HFSS-IE>Field Overlays>Modify Plot Attributes, after which the Select Folder window appears. Select the folder containing the mesh plot you want to modify, and then click OK to display the Mesh Plots dialog.

For Mesh plots, the following attributes can be modified:

[spacer]

Plot

A drop down list of available plots.

Scale Factor

The size at which the tets are displayed. Scaling may let you analyze particular situations better. For example, a scale factor of 80% draws the tetrahedra at 80% of their original size.

Use the Scale factor slider to increase (move to the right) or decrease (move to the left) the percentage of the tetrahedra size.

Transparency

The degree of transparency for the tets. This is useful for viewing objects or plots behind the current plot.

Use the Transparency slider to increase (move to the right) or decrease (move to the left) the transparency of the plot.

Mesh type

Whether to display the tets as wire frame or shaded, and whether to Add Grid.

Mesh Color for Line and Fill

The color for the tet edge lines and fill. Clicking the button for each displays a color selection dialog.

Surface Only

Whether to plot the surface only, or all tets inside selected objects.

Real Time

Whether to show changes to a mesh in real time. If this option is cleared, click Apply when you want to see the changes

2. By default the Plot Quality selection is Normal. You can use the drop down menu to select Coarse, Normal, Fine, or Very Fine. The higher the resolution, the more memory used.

Higher quality selections permit visualization of curvilinear mesh elements. With the Course setting, facets to not snap to the midpoint edge.

Normal setting displays snapping to the midpoint edge.

Fine setting displays more of the curvilinear tets.

Very fine gives the most accurate display, though using the most memory.

3. Click the Save as default button if you want the tab’s settings to apply to mesh plots created after this point.

4. Click Close to dismiss the dialog box.
