Chapter 15: Creating Local Volume Min/Max Probes

Mechanical includes a beta feature that enables you to display probe labels for the minimum and maximum result values of all active parts. The application currently includes a feature that enables you to display min/max probe labels for the results on exterior faces of the model.


Note:  As needed, see the Activate Beta Options section to make the feature available.


Select an evaluated result object, right-click in the Geometry window, and then select one of the following options:

  • Create Local Volume Max Probes (Beta): Display probe labels for the largest (Max) result values within the local range for all active parts.

  • Create Local Volume Min Probes (Beta): Display probe labels for the smallest (Min) result values within the local range for all active parts.

These options support results on the entirety of active parts. Any local min/max value contained in an active part is detected.
