This chapter explains how you can use the Query toolset in the Visualization module to obtain general model information and to probe model and X–Y plots for output data. The following topics are covered:

“Understanding general queries,” Section 30.1
“Understanding probing,” Section 30.2
“Using the Query toolset,” Section 30.3

For information on writing selected probe values to a file, see Chapter 35, “Generating tabular data reports.” For information on using the Query toolset to obtain linearized stresses, see Chapter 32, “Calculating linearized stresses.”
