Gray scale color map for Creo 3.0 SIMULATE

[djohnson]

Using Creo 3.0 SIMULATE.  Stress fringe plots are colored red-orange-yellow-green-blue. 

One of our users is "color challenged" and we are seeking a gray-shade color map (syscol.scl) to load for reviewing stress analysis results.

  [This is something we do easily in ANSYS]

Is there an example syscol.scl file available for shades of gray ?

Is there a simple way to redefine the fringe colors ?

Thanks,

Within the simulation window, if you go to Format -> Legend it will bring up the dialog box that lets you change the limits for the various color levels. If you click on one of the colors within this dialog box it will let you change the color to anything you want.

Hi Chris,

Thank you - your reply got me close enough to find exactly what I was seeking.  There is a grayscale option available for plotting stress contour results.  My instructions to my students are: After solving with Creo-Simulate, when viewing results: On the Format Tab, in the Legend section click on Edit the change Spectrum: Grayscale
