Problem description

With the release of PLAXIS 2D 2010, the display of the results in the Output program have been improved for performance of display by using the graphics card and OpenGL.

Because of this, users can now set their own size of symbols, nodes, stress points and plate thickness via the Settings [F10] to fit their needs.

Selecting nodes or stress points that are to be used for curves can still be done, but the item has to be clicked on exactly. When the nodes are too small, exact clicking will become difficult.

Solution

To improve this, please open the Settings [F10] in the Plaxis Output program, and enlarge the symbol size.

Note: in order to be able to select items in PLAXIS Output, 32-bit colour display should be enabled in the graphics card settings.
