contour plot on isolated component

[aguayo]

Hello everyone,
I apologize in advance since this thread is more than another direct request, but maybe it can help others too. I have an axieme in ansys, I solve static analysis, I would like to isolate a component and give the contour plot only on this. Is that possible? It's been a while since I hit it, but I can't.

Thank you very much

If I'm not mistaken, you have to use the "cmsel" command. ...... .

I tried, I select the component in the sense that if I do plot->components->selected component generates on screen the component that select with command, but when I visualize the contour plot there is however all the assemblies. What's wrong?

try to select the nodes of the part you care about and the elements "attached" to such knots and try to contour plot

again gives me the contour plot of the whole axieme:

select the component (if you have created it) with cmsel
then select nodes and attached elements

then try again the plot.
