Hide mesh outline in FLUENT contour plots via TUI

    • jindrich.hala

      Hi, I am struggling with the generation of the contour plot from the batch 2D computation running on a cluster using FLUENT 19.3. I could not find the way to hide the mesh outlines which always display on top of the contours I want to display on the clipped surface even when I use /display/set/contours/render-mesh no TUI command. I can get rid of it in GUI but I would like to make it via TUI.


      The relevant part of the journal file code I am using is:


      /display/set-window 2
      /display/set/render-mesh no
      /display/set/contours/render-mesh no
      /display/set/contours/surfaces iso-xy ()
      /display/set/contours/filled-contours yes


      /display/contour/mach-number 0 1.8


       


      Thank you for any advice!

      Use the new (at 2019) objects then you can choose to show just contours, contours + mesh etc.

      Hi, thank you for the reply, but it seems it does not make what I need. In the object menu there are only entities which appear under the graphics or plots section of the Outline View if there are any defined. The problem is that I want to define all the stuff which display in the current window using the TUI but it is somewhat tricky to get rid of those lines.

      i am not sure which are these lines. 


      are these lines from mesh?


      please try commands under /display


      please check surface-edge-visibility

      Hi, yes these are lines from mesh.


      I solved it finally by selecting /display/update-scene/select-geometry, selecting unwanted geometry and then applying /display/update-scene/display no.
