Cylindrical Coord System - Results

I'm relatively new to Hypermesh, but the issue I'm having seems way too simple for the absurd amount of trouble it is causing me. I'm using a model of a simple hollow tube that has both been meshed and had boundary conditions applied. I'm solving with NASTRAN and importing results into Hyperview. As my loading is torsional, I'd like to view the output (particularly the stresses) in a cylindrical coordinate system; however, I can't seem to find an option to do this. I tried playing with the 'system' tab to produce a local cylindrical reference system (which I then assigned all of my nodes and loads to), but the Hyperview output doesn't seem to change when I change the reference system.

What am I missing?

Thanks to anybody who takes a stab at this.
