Query Function

One powerful way to review analysis results on a member by member basis is the Query function, which is available from View > Query.

This tool has the special "Query" cursor associated with it.  When the Query cursor is displayed, clicking on any node, member or shell opens the Nodal Info, Member Info or Shell Info dialog that offers a great deal of info about the clicked node, member or shell.  The info includes geometric, material and loading data.  After a successful analysis the dialog also includes analysis results such as forces, moments, deflections, and rotations.
