Results Ribbon

The Results ribbon is visible only after you solve the model and a solution is present. This ribbon provides tools for viewing the analysis result. Results that display in spreadsheet format can also be found in the Explorer panel under the Results section.

The following table provides a short description of each tool.

Icon	Tool	Description
Results
	Results Browser	Allows you to select to open one or more spreadsheets from a list of all the Results spreadsheets. The tool displays a list of all the Results spreadsheets and whether or not they are currently open. A check in the checkbox indicates that the spreadsheet is open.
	Sort by Combination	Allows you to sort the spreadsheet results of a batch solution by load combination. Results are listed in chronological order, based on load combination. For example, all the member forces under Load Combination 1 are listed first. The forces under Load Combination 2 are listed next.
	Sort by Item	Allows you to sort the spreadsheet results of a batch solution by item. For example, you can group results from each load combination under a particular member.
	Filter Results	Allows you to filter selected elements from the spreadsheet results. Choose to filter out the results for selected, or unselected, elements from the results spreadsheets. This is useful when you would like to focus on the results for a specific portion of the model.
Results
	Contour Diagram	Displays a diagram for stresses and/or forces along a defined cut in Plates or Walls. Select two points within a slab to display a diagram representation of color contours for stresses and/or forces along a defined cut in the slab.
	Diagram Report	Displays an enlarged image of the Contour Diagram. Use this tool to view a graphical report that shows the contours as diagrams along with numerical data for every section along the length of the diagram.
Formatting
	Clear Results	Allows you to delete all solution results. This tool clears all solution results to make changes in the model or solve another solution.
	Warning Log	Opens the Warning Log spreadsheet, which provides you with a record of any warnings or errors that occurred during the solution of your model. For more information, see Warning Log.
	Detailed Report	Allows you to access detailed analysis and design information for elements. Click on an element to view all analysis and design results pertaining to that specific element. View shear, moment and stress diagrams, as well as design information and code checks.
