Hi Ahilan,

 

What is the version and updates for HyperWorks do you have?

 

on HW 13.0, I can see a clean contour with HyperView.

Thanks for the reply.

 

I use HV 12. So the problem is with the version.

Altair Forum User

Maybe not.

 

Even with 12.0 110 update, I get the same result.

 

can you update the 12.0?

 

VIsit the link below for more details on updates.
