Saving modified plot settings

If you have made a change to the properties of one of the results listed in the Study Tasks pane, you can apply the change to all results if required.

Tip: You can click Application button, then Options to set the default results that are created during an analysis.
  1. Select a result from the Study Tasks pane and change one of its properties. (For example: right-click the result, select Properties, and change an Element Edge Display option in the Mesh Display tab).
  2. Click Save Global Plot Properties (Results tab > Properties panel > Save Defaults > Save Global Plot Properties).
  3. In the Modified plot settings list, select the plot settings that you want to have saved globally.
  4. Select the Update all plots with the new settings check box, and then click Yes.
Tip: Alternatively, right-click on the result node in the Study Tasks pane and select Properties. You can then manually change the properties.
Tip: You can use Save Properties of Current Result (Results tab > Properties panel > Save Defaults > Save Properties of Current Result) to specify that all results that are created hence are of the same format as the current plot. For example, you may want some Stress analysis results to be created as an XY plot by default.
