Problems Defining Axis Directions for ply definition

Altair Forum User

Hello everybody,

 

I am trying to set the material orientation of my elements according to a newly defined axis system. When I'm doing so, selecting all elements then choosing the system and entering a sufficient size, the orientation of the cells is not shown. If I select only a few elements, like 4, the orientation of each element is shown with the defined color, size and direction. 

 

Does anybody have a clue, what I'm doing wrong?

 

Thank you for your held in advance.

If you are setting the material orientation using the 1D > Systems panel, you should see the orientation displayed for all the elements,

please delete the settings files and try again, http://forum.altairhyperworks.com/index.php?/topic/13434-how-to-delete-settings-files/
