Topic: Display of Cut Plane Forces

Hi,

I am using the ATENA Studio post-processor, and I am trying to display the forces in the cross-section of my model. After I define the cut plane, and press 'Show Normal and Shear Force', the force vector arrows displayed are very large, and I cannot find the legend window anywhere. The arrows remain the same size when I try zooming in or out in the structure window. I tried checking if it is possible to change any display settings, but I couldn't find anything. Do you know if this could be related to some other problem?

Thanks

Re: Display of Cut Plane Forces

Hi,
a legend dialog is default placed to the end of a Fy axis (the green one). If you rotate a model such as you see an arrow of the Fy axis and then
click on "Reset legend location", the legend will be replaced to the Fy axis and become visible. Then you can drag it, where you want.
