opstool.vis.plotly.plot_truss_responses(odb_tag=1, ele_tags=None, slides=False, step='absMax', show_values=True, resp_type='axialForce', alpha=1.0, show_outline=False, line_width=1.5)

Visualizing Truss Response.

Parameters

odb_tag: Union[int, str], default: 1

Tag of output databases (ODB) to be visualized.

ele_tags: Union[int, list], default: None

show_values: bool, default: True

Whether to display the response value.

resp_type: str, default: “axialForce”

Response type, optional, one of [“axialForce”, “axialDefo”, “Stress”, “Strain”].

alpha: float, default: 1.0
