3.1 Point values
Just like the pre¬processor, the post¬processor window has a set of different editing modes: Point, Contour, and Area. The choice of mode is specified by the mode toolbar buttons, i.e. where the first button corresponds to Point mode, the second to Contour mode, and the third to Area mode. By default, when the program is first installed, the post¬processor starts out in Point mode. By clicking on any point with the left mouse button, the various field properties associated with that point are displayed in the floating FEMM Outputwindow. Similar to drawing points in the pre¬processor, the location of a point can be precisely specified by pressing the button and entering the coordinates of the desired point in the dialog that pops up. For example, if the point (0,0) is specified in the pop¬up dialog, the resulting properties displayed in the output window are as pictured in Figure 4.
