Select filter options that the software applies to all reports generated in the Output Processor. You set filter options from the Filter Options tab on the Filters dialog box, which you can access by selecting Filters in the Output Processor menu. You can specify filter settings, such as setting the signed value or the combination of fields filtered, which the software applies globally to all reports you generate.

From Node

Enter both a From and To node number and the software filters based on nodes in the specified range display. In other words, only one of the node pair must fall within the specified range. If you enter just a From node number, then the software displays the From node and all nodes greater than it. The software filters and displays all node pairings that have at least one node (To or From) in the filter setting for the node range.

To Node

Enter both a From and To node number and the software filters based on nodes in the specified range display. If you enter just a To node number, then the software displays the To node and all nodes less than it. The software filters and displays all node pairings that have at least one node (To or From) in the filter setting for the node range.

Filter Options

Select the appropriate filter option for values: Absolute Value or Signed Value. The software defaults to filtering by the magnitude, regardless of the sign or direction. You can filter by a specific direction of load or displacement. This feature is particularly useful when looking for lifting off the supports in directional restraints (such as +Y).

Combinations (Fields or Classes)

Select the appropriate filter option for field or class combinations. Fields refer to the data inputs in each tab class. Classes refers to the major types of output, for example Displacements, Restraints, Forces, or Stresses. Classes have separate tabs in the Filters dialog box. For example, DX and RZ are fields in the Displacements class, FX and MZ are fields in the Restraints class, and Code Stress and Bending Stress are fields in the Stresses class.

Reset Filter

Select to reset the filter settings for the currently-active tab.

Reset All Filters

Select to reset all the filter settings for all filters, including the options and the report-specific filter classes.
