BasicOptions object

The BasicOptions object stores values and attributes associated with an OdbDisplay object.

The BasicOptions object has no constructor command. Abaqus creates the defaultOdbDisplay.basicOptions member when you import the Visualization module. Abaqus creates a basicOptions member when it creates the OdbDisplay object, using the values from defaultOdbDisplay.basicOptions. Abaqus creates the odbDisplay member when a viewport is created, using the attributes from the previous active viewport. The previous active viewport contains the attributes from the defaultOdbDisplay object for the session. The attributes from the defaultOdbDisplay object are copied from the previous active viewport to create the new viewport.

BasicOptions objects are accessed in one of two ways:

  • The default basic options: these settings are used as defaults when other basicOptions members are created. These settings can be set to customize user preferences.

  • The basic options associated with a particular viewport.
