Hello,
I just started learning Paraview and sorry in advance if the problem I need help addressing is very trivial or have been answered before.
Currently I am using Paraview for postprocessing for a FEM simulation done on FreeCAD. The project that I am doing involves measuring dimensional changes in a submicron level.
airy1-CCX_Results.vtk (305.6 KB)
According to the color preset on the results obtained, there is a small change of 4.8 micrometer in the X direction. I am currently measuring the length change in the X direction from the midpoint to the end using the ruler function and the length always seems to round off to 50mm, instead of possibly 50.0048mm. Changing the scale under the label properties of ruler doesnt seem to work either. The dimensions of the block is 100 x 9 x 35 mm. I was wondering if there is any other tools on Paraview or a better way to use the Ruler tool to measure changes in the submicron level.
Thank you.
