[GiDlist] Issues with Postprocess Graphics
Posted: Wed Aug 06, 2014 9:05 pm
Hi,
My system has Nvidia Quadro K card. Can I use it to get better graphic capabilities from GiD postprocess?

Hi,
from the message i guess that you're using GiD in Safe visualization mode, i.e. using software (cpu) graphics.
To disable the message, in post-process, select the option Options -- Contour -- Bright color -- No from the top menu bar.
Without this option, contour fill colours will be drawn without shininess, kind of metal reflection.
If you want to use this option, i'll recomend you to change to Fast visualization mode ( Preferences window -- Graphics -- system), which will use your graphics card to render the models.
Have you tried already this mode? did you find any problems? If so, can you explain them to us and send the contents of Help -- About -- More?
thanks, and best regards,
Miguel Pasenau

Thanks a lot, Enrique.
One more thing regarding postprocess! In my post process, I am getting following warning message.
"Sorry, but to get shinny textured contour fill OpenGL v. 1.2 or the GL_EXT_separate_specular_color extension is needed."
How can I get rid of this warning message? I have also attached the screenshot of my postprocess.

Your file CenterFedRef10G.post.msh really does not contain a GiD postprocess mesh, it contain a NASTRAN mesh !!
And your preprocess model is empty (there are not geometric or mesh entities)
You can rename CenterFedRef10G.post.msh to CenterFedRef10G.nas, then open the GiD project CenterFedRef10G and import it with Files-Import-NASTRAN mesh...
And then you change to postprocess the results file is read and you can see it.
After import the Nastran file you can save the model, and then the preprocess mesh is saved as CenterFedRef10G.msh with the GiD preprocess binary format, and then you can load again the model without require importing the Nastran file (in fact you can delete it after the import)

Thanks Enrique!
Now I have got another issue. Till yesterday, my GiD software was working perfectly but now it is giving me problem both in preprocess and postprocess. I have attached the screenshots of my preprocess window and the postprocess window. Moreover, I have also attached my project folder as well. The preprocess is not showing the geometry as it was showing before and postprocess is not showing any result. Can we see what is the problem? Is the problem with project folder or with the software itself?

Subject: Re: [GiDlist] Viewing results in GiD Postprocess
Instead of create graphs from menus, it is more comfortable to create them from the Graphs window (Window-View graphs...)
[cid:image001.jpg at 01CFB190.2F9CB5C0]
And to select the start and end points, if the center is an existing node, then you can simply pick it (or enter its id number).
If the mouse cursor is a "+" then GiD is expecting a new coordinate x,y,z but you can swap to pick an existing point with Ctrl-a (or click the contextual menu and select "Join")
If the center is not a node you must calculate its coordinates and enter the x,y,z
And for the end point you can calculate also its x,y,z or you can enter the coordinates relative to the previous point (the center) with this syntax starting by @
@x,y
Or with polar coordinates:
@radius,angle
I think that the polar option is what you want. Angle is in degrees, starting from x axe counter-clockwise
e.g. to go 0.2 units in a direction of 45 degrees enter
@0.2,45

Hi,
I have a 2D plot of current density of a circular plate. Now I want to plot the variation of current along a radial line (rho) at some given angle (phi).I know that I can go to
View results/Graphs/Line graph. Now I have two questions regarding this.
i) How can I specify the start and end point of the radial line ? (starting point should be center of circular plate and end point should be on the circumference of the plate)
ii) How can I specify the angle (with respect to horizontal axis) at which the radial line is to be drawn?
