Dear all,

I guess my question is quite simple. I want to create a force-displacement plot.  
The corresponding x values (displacement in one coordinate direction) are already given as one of the data vectors which I wrote into my group of files (time dependent problem). I compute the global force on that surface (line) using the filter integrate variables. This works fine.  
I just do not know how to use the computed force as y values for plotting, because I see them only in the SpreadSheetView for one specific time but not for all time steps.  
Is there a way to write the results of “integrate variables” into a data vector for all time steps?

Any input is appreciated, thanks!
