Mesh Metric Help

      Hi Everyone,


      I had a small issue that I do not understand why I have this problem when I am trying to improve my element quality using the mesh metric I get the graph as shown bellow which is very annoying because I can't really understand much of it. How is it possible to get the values of the Y grid(No. of elements) to be presented.

      Stretch the window out to be very tall, then you can see the graph properly. When you click on the Controls button, the dialog shown to the right will open and you can change the X-Axis and Y-Axis limits as shown in the second example.

      Hi guys, i am working on a project and i did meshing in ansys, i want to get a proper matrix of how many of the elements are tetrahedrons, hexahedrons and shell elements. Is it possible to check that in ansys?

      Once you Solve the model, a count of each element shape is summarized in the Solution Output that can be found under the Solution Information folder.
