Hello, I am having troubles with extracting 1D strain from op2 files using compose. 

I used the function ' readvectorbuilder', when I choose 1D strain from the panel, I couldn't select any CROD element that I have defined previously. (see the image below)

P.S: with H3D file it is possible to extract 1D strain of CROD

but i have to use the op2 file since it's nastran standard .

    Hello,

     

    Did you try to open the same file with HyperGraph? Because Compose borrows HyperGraph readers, which means that probably it won't open there either. Depending on how the file has been written by the solver, some results are not available in HyperGraph, which leads for them not to be available in Compose as well.
