Purpose: The animation interface is mostly for controlling animation of deformed shapes. The most common use is in post-processing deformed shapes from various binary files like d3plot, d3drlf, d3idd files resulting from LS-DYNA solutions. This interface is also used for animating mode shapes from eigen-value analysis. Upon loading d3eigv file LS-PrePost will automatically make SF text widget and No. of Div available to the user. SF is a scale factor often used to magnify displacements from linear and eigenvalue analysis. Number of Division is for sub-dividing eigen-vectors from eigenvalue analysis to produce an animation of mode shapes.
