Ribbon: Inspect tab Analysis panel Zebra

Definition

Sets appearance of analysis results.
Zebra Name

Available in Part environment only. Sets or modifies the name of the analysis. The first saved analysis is named Zebra1 by default.

Direction

Selects Horizontal, Vertical, or Along Axis stripe direction. Specify the direction that shows the most contrast between stripes to indicate transition between surfaces.

Horizontal

Vertical

Radial

Thickness

Specifies stripe thickness by relative proportion of black to white. Minimum setting results in all black stripes. Maximum setting results in all white stripes.

Density

Specifies the spacing or density of the stripes. Minimum setting results in a smaller number of stripes. Maximum setting results in a larger number of stripes. Use Density and Thickness together to achieve the desired results.

Opacity

Specifies opacity of stripes. Transparent results in nearly invisible stripes. Opaque results in stripes that completely obscure model color. Manipulate this setting to view multiple analysis styles at once, such as Zebra and Draft.

Display Quality

Specifies resolution or surface quality for the zebra-pattern for better interpretation of the stripes. The default setting is zero which produces the coarsest results. Low settings result in fewer facets and a more jagged display. High settings result in more facets and smoother transitions, but can increase the time to display the part. Set to 100% to produce the best results.

Selection

Sets the type of geometry to include in the analysis.

All

In the Part environment, specifies if all geometry in the part are analyzed. This includes the entire part and any surface features (quilts) in the part. In the Construction environment, specifies if analysis applies to all solid bodies and surface bodies in the Construction environment.

Select button

Selects the geometry to analyze.

Faces Specifies if selected faces in a solid body or any surface body in the Part or Construction environment are analyzed.

Quilts Specifies if selected surface features and all faces in each selected surface feature are analyzed.

Groups (Available in construction environment only.) Specifies if all faces in the selected construction groups are analyzed.
