Express forces in different systems

Hello, 

I'm completely new to Hypermesh and struggling. I would appreciate your help.

I did a Python code that deals with rotation and translation of coord systems to express forces and moments in different systems. I wanted to use Hypermesh to check my code by creating examples. 

So is it possible to get the coordinates of a force in a local coord system after have defined it in another system in Hypermesh ? I don't want to rotate of modify the force in itself but rotation a coord system and get the coordinates of the force in a new system. 

 

I tried but without success for the moment. 

 

Thank you  for your help.

    Hi

    I am not quite sure if I understand what you need, but if you already run the model and have the results:

    Within HyperView, you can create a local coordinate system and refer to it when ask to contour vector results

    I hope this is helpful
