Hello to all

I am having troubles with ploting digrams of bending moments in Ansys APDL
I used this command for beam 188 elements:
etable,moz1,smisc,3
etable,moz2,smisc,16
plls,moz1,moz2,-1,1

It works fine, however, later I need to change orientation of beam's cross-section. I use command:
Lsel,,,,1 $ latt,,,,,4
where 4 is a Keypoint.

Do you know to solve it?

Hi,

To solve what? You said plotting the bending moment was working?

The LATT command needs to be followed by a remesh and of course by a new solve. You are changing the physics of your problem if you change the orientation of your beams...
