Questions about results visualization/queries.

[JohnTomasik6493]

Just got this software about a month and a half ago, and just started using it heavily on my projects.  I did a few tutorials that seemed relevant.  What I am not finding are any good instructions on what results visualizations options are available, or it may be simply that they're not.  

Can we alter the range on the results display?  If so, how?

Is there a dynamic probe available, where we can pick on the screen to view a result for that area/node?  If not, how can we query specific points on the model?

Seems like there's a means of viewing some dynamic illustration of the steps/analysis.  Haven't figured out how, and the tutorials I reviewed didn't do much more than repeatedly show me how to create a cutting plane.  Can I create dynamic results?  Or, again, any good links to instructions on using that functionality?

Or, better yet, is there a comprehensive instruction on all results options that I can go through and answer my own questions?

Hi John,

A lot of the basic clicks and picks and working with the results is covered in our essential skills videos series.

I think that is a great place to start as you start digging into the documentation.    If you really want to dig into the help read through the 'Process' section of the help.
