When viewing a result, the value and location of the maximum and minimum calculated values are automatically displayed. Appearance settings such as "variable range", "coloring", and "color distribution" can be varied under the "Appearance" tab to fit the needs of the user. Changing these settings can make it easier to view and understand the results for specific areas of the geometry.

For geometries with more than one body, the "Location" option under the "Definition" tab can be used to specify which bodies the results are evaluated for. By default, results are generated for all bodies in the assembly. However, choosing only specific bodies can make it easier to determine the maximum and minimum result values in these bodies (especially when those values are not the maximum and minimum values of the overall geometry).
