    In HyperView,

    On contour panel click the yellow color selector (components/element). A new window will pop-up “extended entity selection”. In that click By config and choose the element configuration type (for 2D: QUAD4/QUAD8)

    Sir contour panel have different values of results for von mises stress or any result type. There are number of results get obtain for same element by changing averaging method, layer and coordinate system. 

     

    Can you tell which combination I decide to get better result
