Table C–4, Table C–5, and Table C–6 present the special graphical symbols used by Abaqus/CAE to represent interactions, constraints, and connectors, respectively. For information about symbol size and location, see “Understanding symbols that represent interactions, constraints, and connectors,” Section 15.10. For information on controlling the display of these symbols, see “Controlling the display of attributes,” Section 76.15.
