Is it possible to set up outputs for certain elements only? i.e. say for a manifold could i output the headers etc seperately? I am currently performing stress analysis of some spools being added to an existing manifold, i have built a model of the whole thing, now can I output just the new parts or do I need to take note of the element numbers and then search through the output for the whole model? Thanks.

Yes. Use the "Filters" and just set a "node range".

You need to remember that you set the filters though. If you come back to this job months from now, you'll pull your hair out wondering why you dont' get all of the output.
