For specifically scoped locations, probe objects enable you to display result data, such as a sum of all element forces, over Time or Frequency. Based on the probes object type, the application supports a wide variety of scoping capabilities, including geometric, mesh, boundary condition, contact, etc. The application does not display contours for probe object results. Generally, it displays a simple green highlight at the centroid of your scoping. Similar to regular contour results, there are a variety of probe object types, based on analysis type, such as deformation, stress, temperature, heat reaction, etc.
