Can you shift a 2-d cut plane?

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi,

I've built a 3-d model using MIMICS, but some of my geometry doesn't line up perfectly along COMSOL's coordinate system.

I want to evaluate my 3-d model in 2-d cut plane sections, but I need to rotate my entire model (or just the results) along a single axis. Is there a way to do this in results?

For example, I want to rotate the model 23 degrees in the +Z direction, then I want to look at the corresponding xy plane at certain plane levels.

Thanks,
Ben

Hi

Leave rather your "data set" as is, and add a new extracted data set based on a line or a plane extraction (right click the data set main node)

A good habit: right click most nodes, note that context menu content might change, when you change different physics selections higher up in the structure

Good luck
