Internal nodes, stress values

[lhintonC3ZNZ]

Hi All, I'm trying to run an analysis of a pressurised compartment where I need to probe the part internally.  However I cannot seem to choose an internal node.  It always chooses a node that is not internal.  Am I missing something?

Hi @lhintonC3ZNZ 

Autodesk Inventor Nastran 2025 Help | Probe does not function on a sectioned view in Nastran In-CAD ...

Other than the suggestion to make an assembly so that you can hide parts to see the inside, I am not aware of solution.

Thanks John, however I can clearly see the inside, as per the attached cross sectional views.  I simply cannot choose or select these nodes to probe them.  It seem strange that you cannot probe a node if it's an internal face.
