I would like to add the initial position results from my solution to the displacement solutions to get a final position solution. I was trying to do that using the Add option under the Data Tab. What kind of syntax is required in the equation to do that, or is there a different way to add the results.
Go to the Data tab, then select Displacement with the left mouse button. (If the tab is not shown, go up to the View menu and click on "Data") Then select Filter, and then select "Arithmetic". Operation should be "add" and operand should be "initial position". This should create a new nodal plotfield variable that can be accessed in the standard way in PostView.
All this said, I just tried this on my laptop running PostView 2.3.0 and PostView crashed. Please try it on your end and let me know what happens, this may be a bug.
Thanks for checking this. I will open a bug report in the "PostView Projects" section of the forum and inform Steve Maas of the issue. Hopefully we can get this corrected for you in short order (week or less, depending on Steve's other commitments).
