display_attributes scale torque_graphics
The TORQUE_GRAPHICS command indicates that all rotational force graphics associated with a specified analysis are to be scaled. The scale value will have a multiplicative effect on the current size of the rotational force graphic symbol. For example, a scale value of 0.25 will make the rotational force graphic symbols appear one-fourth as large. A scale value of 2.0 will make the rotational force graphic symbols appear twice as large.
Format:
display_attributes scale torque_graphics |
|---|
analysis_name = | existing analysis |
scale = | real |
Example:
display_attributes scale torque_graphics & |
|---|
analaysis_name = | analysis_1 & |
scale = | 2.0 |
Torque graphic symbol in the analysis ANALYSIS_1 will appear twice as large as they used to, once the above command is executed.
Description:
Parameter | Value Type | Description |
|---|
Analysis_name | Existing Analysis | This parameter specifies an analysis name. |
Scale | Real | The scale parameter is used to control the size of marker, force, or torque graphic symbols. |
Extended Definition:
1. When Adams View reads a graphics file (.GRA), a request file (.REQ), or a results file (.RES) an analysis name is created. By default, the name of the analysis is the file name excluding the extension.
Adams View requires that Adams simulations have unique names and the default name of an analysis may be overridden when reading the file(s) using the file_name parameter. When referring to an analysis name that already exists, quotes are not necessary. When processing any command that requires an analysis name, the system will default to the default analysis name. The default analysis name is set to the last analysis file read in (.GRA, .REQ, .RES, or all three). To change the default analysis name without reading in an analysis file, use the "defaults analysis" command.
2. The scale value will have a multiplicative effect on the current size of the graphic symbols. For example, a scale value of 0.25 will make the graphic symbol appear one-fourth as large. A scale value of 2.0 will make the graphic symbol appear twice as large. The scale value is a real number and must be greater than zero. This parameter is optional and if not entered, will default to 1.0.
