cannot visualize lines in post

Post by sgallegos »

Hi,

I am using only line models. When passing from pre to post the lines are not visible, If I give a contour fill command, the color scale appears on the right side but nothing can be seen. The results are there because I can show the results using labels, but no lines. If I use line diagrams I can see them fine.
I am using Gid 13 in a MAC on OSX El Capitan x64.
I know its something in the configuration because I could see the lines some hours ago but I don't know what I did wrong. I tried using Utilities > Preferences > PostProcess > Contour fill and lines but nothing, I tried changing other settings but with no results... What else can I do?

Hi Sergio,
Have you checked the 'Line size' preference?
It's located in Utilities-->Preferences-->Postprocess-->Mesh elements, under 'Line element options'.

You can also reset all preferences if you:
1. go with the Finder to the Applications folder
2. on the GiD icon, right click and selec 'Show package contents'
3. a new Finder window will pop-up showing the contents of /Applications/GiDxxxx.app/
4. go to Contents/MacOS
5. double click on 'GiD_Sage_Mode'
6. a window will pop-up like the attached one.
7. Click on the 'Reset preferences' checkbox
8. Press the 'Ok' button
