GGU-ELASTIC: "Principle stresses/strains" menu item

The principal stresses and principal strains can be visualised as value-dependent dashes. Select the appropriate check box in the subsequent dialog box to achieve this.

Define the maximum dash length in the following input box as the quotient "sig/eps [m]". The line colour and line thickness can be specified separately for positive and negative principal moments in the menu item "Graphics preferences/Pen colour and width". The remaining settings are already known from the explanations in the previous section.
