The Convergence Plot command displays the plot within a dialog box. The plot shows:
- The number of refinements required for the solution to converge, if convergence is achieved, or the number of solution steps requested for the required refinements.
- The values associated with each refinement.
The window close button in the upper right corner dismisses the dialog box.
To change the plot results criteria, right-click in any open space within the plot pane. Then, click Plot Options.
