Display Options for Requests Points

Before a simulation is run, it is good practice to validate that the data were requested at the correct locations. Request points and the display of the near field boundary are used to verify that far fields and near fields requests are correct.

Requests points are displayed automatically if no result data is present. Once data becomes available, the result data is displayed and the request points are hidden.

The requests display settings are available on the 3D View contextual tabs set, on the Result tab, in the Requests group.
