I've made a model of a hi-pot test setup to visualize how the electric field changes at a discontinuity as the conductivity changes (fixed potential).
I'ts working great, but now I want to make an animation of the results. I can create the series of 2D plots without a problem, but I don't know how to show the value for the conductivity on the plot, making it difficult to distinguish between them.

Carl -

Click on the plot group node in the Model Builder window and, in the Settings window, expand the Title section.

For Title type, select Custom. Then under Solution, check the Solution check box. This should show the time step or parameter value in the Title of your plot.

Thanks, Josh.

I've already tried that. It didn't change even after replotting.

Just to be sure. Did you click on the head Plot Group node and click the Solution check box under Title? The reason I ask is because I see that your screenshot shows that the Surface plot node is selected rather than the parent node.

Otherwise, I'm not sure what's happening. Would you be willing to post your mph file?

Carl,

Okay. I think I might have an answer.

Set the Data set of your Surface plot to "From parent". Then, set the Data set on the Plot Group node (the parent) to the Solution that has your parametric sweep.

When you do this you should be able to get the parameter name and value displayed in the title for your animation.

I got this to work on one of my models. Let us know if that works for you.

Josh
