question about tecplot

June 7, 2003, 21:50

Hi, there:

I have some questions about using tecplot.

1. How to make a movie by tecplot? I have a bunch of continuous time step data with u, v, w velocities, how to make them move in tecplot?

2. for 3-D vector plot, is there any way to limit the range of vector like what we do in contour plot? For example, the magnitudes of most vectors are small, only some important ones are big. But in tecplot, it plots everything, so I can't see anything. Any way to only show the big ones?

Thank you very much!
