Algor DesignCheck - Displacements - Help!
Hi -
Can anybody tell me how to show displacements in Algor? The stress plots are fine, but now I need the same thing showing displacements.
The report that is generated includes the following:
****BEGIN DISPLACEMENT OUTPUT
****PRINT OF DISPLACEMENT OUTPUT SUPPRESSED
****END DISPLACEMENT OUPUT
Can anyone tell me how to 'unsuppress' the displacement output?
And this brings up another question...Why are the add-ons shipped with no documentation? No users guides, nothing. I paid extra for Alibre Professional because of the add-ons. I assumed something would be included to explain how to use them. I don't have the time to fiddle around with them for hours and hours until I happen upon an answer. When I contacted Alibre support, they were very prompt in replying which I appreciate very much. However, the answer that I got, 'watch the demo' wasn't very helpful. I've watched the demo, several times now, and it shows how to show the displacement model, but not how to obtain the displacement outputs. And the Algor help menu...is not very helpful.
Thanks,
S.Woodard
