Create Spec Line
Adams PostProcessor → Plot → Create Spec Line
Adds
Spec lines to your plots to help you compare curves to a constant baseline value. A spec line can be a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line that indicates a value of significance on the vertical axis. You can start the spec line at any X or Y position.
For example, if you are plotting acceleration and you want to keep the acceleration below a certain value, you can add a spec line marking that value on the plot. You can then compare any curves that you add to that plot to see if the curves fall beneath the spec line. There are no limits to the number of spec lines you can add to a plot.
