imat_fem/plotcs


Purpose

Display FEM coordinate systems.

Syntax

plotcs(fem)
h=plotcs(fem,'nolabels','showfem')
plotcs(fem,'light blue',3)

Description

PLOTCS displays the coordinate systems defined in the supplied IMAT_FEM object. By default it will display the coordinate systems in golden orange, and label them. PLOTCS uses imat_ctrace/plot to draw the arrows.

The following optional input strings are supported.

'nolabels' Turn off the coordinate system labels and just plot the arrows.
'showfem' Display the coordinate systems on the FEM. Otherwise, just the coordinate systems will be displayed.


Any other input arguments are passed along toimat_ctrace/plot. Please see the help for this function for options such as specifying the coordinate system color and scale factor.

H is the handle of the uipanel in which the plot is displayed.

For large models, consider using VTKPLOTCS.
