AUSB
To hide parts of the presentation (contour lines, equal-value domains, etc) in certain elements in case of a horizontal plot.
Input:
1st line: name of the file containing the corresponding elements
The format of the file is described in chapter “file with elements to hide”. The program requires in this file only element numbers of the topmost layer (even in case of a section through deeper layers (3D)). You can create the list of elements with the help of SPRING and copy it from the input file into a new file. The command relates to all following commands where it is possible. It is switched off only with a new section (batch commands HORI, VERT, 2DMO)!
CLIP
Clips a defined window in a horizontal plot (that means for plots of 2D models or horizontal sections through a 3D model)
Input:
1st line: xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax (separated by a blank or a tab) - corners at the bottom left and at the top right using global coordinates
All parts inside the coordinate frame are plotted, all parts outside the frame are clipped. Hence, the coordinate frame refers to the clip window coordinates.
SKAL
Edits the scales, globally and in directions x and y for horizontal and vertical plots
Input:
1st line: sca, scx, scy (separated by a blank or a tab)
(Input 0 causes the corresponding factor to be set on the default value 1.)
If you want to change the scales specified in the mesh file (identification MASS), you have to insert this command before the first plot command. Otherwise the scale command is ignored!
For a 3D model, if the definition of any section (using the batch command HORI or VERT) is missing, SPRING automatically executes the command HORI = 0 before the first plot command. In a similar fashion, the command 2DMO is executed for the two-dimensional case. Each of the commands HORI, VERT and 2DMO causes the scaling factors to be set back to the default value 1. Consequently, the scale command SKAL has only an effect on the scales after use of the commands HORI, VERT or 2DMO. So, if you want to use the scale command, you must insert the command HORI (= 0) or 2DMO before the scale command!
