Good day all

How does one plot/calculate reaction forces in NX? I ran a FEA of a tank and I want to plot the reaction forces on the base structure that has a fixed constraint on it. I want to use that result as a sanity check to make sure that I have specified the correct loading.

I tried using the Result Probe button but I cannot find a clear answer for what I should to in the Formula box.
