How can to get "deflection value" of a beam in "frame analysis" after "simulate" ?
Please help!

"You can't get there from here", at least not with Frame Analysis at this time. All you can get is the deflection picture and possible min/max values.
What you mean is: look at the result picture and feel. Then using the rule to measure the deflection value. Sorry if im wrong.
I've attack the picture, will you see it and give me more idea.
Im using IV 2011 (paid version).
Frame Analysis is a slightly different section than the standard FEA Analysis. In regular Analysis, you can select the "Displacement" from the "Results" in the Browser Panel", then select the "Probe Tool" and as you move it around the model your displacements will be displayed in a box.
If you are using the "Frame Analysis" section, you don't get this functionality. From the picture you posted, you are using the regular FEA Analysis. Run your model, select the "Displacement" from the "Results" in the Browser, then select the "Probe Tool" from the "Result" section on the upper tool-bar. The first box that will pop up in your main display will be your "Max-Displacement". As you move your mouse around the model, you will get displacements along with their coordinates.
