Combined results

An interesting postprocess options is to combine several result visualizations, like this one:

To get this view follow these steps:

• Clear all results visualizations with View results->No results or the  icon.
• Select View results->Default analysis/step->RANSOL->103.0
• Select View results->Iso surfaces->Exact->Pressure through the menu bar. If you click the icon a window like this will appear, that allows you to dynamically select the value used to visualize the iso-surface:

• In the following questions: How many iso-surfaces? Enter 1
• Enter the 1 value ...? Enter 0
• To visualize the iso-surface you may change the display style to Boundaries  , but for the contour fill visualization of the next steps remember to change to Body Boundaries style .
• Select View results->Contour fill->Pressure
• Fix the Minimum value to 0.0
• And in preferences  of Contour fill set Out minimum color: Transparent
• Select Color map: Terrain
• And in preferences  of Iso surfaces select Color mode: Monochrome
• The Mono color button allows you to change the color of the iso surface.

For other result visualization combinations you need to enable the Several results options:

• Select Window->Several results. Then following window appears:

• In this window select one over another. With this option GiD is told to visualize one result over another, .e.g. to simultaneously draw the value of a pressure and the vectors of a velocity:
