The graphical display of the "maximum deflections" does start with the system maximum. After that, each time you press [Enter], the system shows the next highest maximum.

If the system is large enough that graphical review in this manner is insufficient, I suggest using the on-screen reports. While on the displacement report, use the <em>binocular</em> icon to bring up a search dialog. This will allow you to search on various quantities. <em>(You can restrict the data in the reports using the [Filter] option. For specific areas of the model, usually the "node filter" is the best choice.)</em>

If this is still inefficient, try using the "\tools\external interfaces\data export wizard", and send the data to MS Access. Once in Access, you can sort, query, and generate reports to your own liking.
