Visualization of Contact Forces in V6

Main Forum

Hi AnyBody-Team!

Using the new Version 6.0 I experienced, that the contact forces disappeared in the model view. As written in the reference manual, you sacrificed the option ForceViewOnOff in the AnyForceSurfaceContact class. Is there a special reason for that? In my case, the visualization was a nice optical feedback regarding articulating surfaces.

Best regards,

Hi Mulle,

this option is not really sacrificed, it is only removed from the AnyForceSurfaceContact because it got its own DrawObject.
You only have to create an AnyDrawForceSurface object to get them back.

Best regards
