Color Bar
Color Bar for temperature visualization
Description
The Color Bar component is provided for visualizing cylindrical color bar of temperature. The following image is an example of Color Bar components in 3-D Playback Window.
Note: If you use Visualization components of the Heat Transfer Library, you can visualize temperature change as colored geometry in 3-D Playback Window. To make this function available, you have to enable 3-D Animation option in Multibody Settings. The quality of the visualization is affected if any open plot windows are behind the 3-D Playback Window. If you are experiencing playback issues, try moving the 3-D Playback Window so that it does not overlap a plot window. Alternatively, minimize or close any open plot windows.
