Contour plot

Im frequency analisys, if I see a contour plot from one side I can see that colours represent values ranges. Per example those z displacement plots:


But if I sum z displacement of two modes I get this plot


but sideways I don't see that colours represent displacement ranges.


What is happenong here?
Is that colour plot wrong, or colours represent something different than range values of the variable?

  • How did you sum the displacements of two modes?

    If you created a new solution variable for that, then it won't be used for the deformed view by default but you can set it in Solution -> Deformed view settings.

    If you modified the existing displacement variable with a script, there might be a cache that's not updated so perhaps re-open the file. If this happened, please let me know so I can fix it.
  • I'm realizing now that the problem is that in the new plor deformation is given from original z displacement of the mode, not from the value of the variable I'm plotting.
    Is there a way to show a plot whose deformation is the variable I calculate instead of the displacement of the original mode?
