The Page Control is a set of tabs that appear to the left of the Main Window. There
are two rows of tabs for accessing Pages and Subpages. Each Page allows access to
certain Subpages. Each Subpage allows you to perform specific tasks. The
organization of the Pages, from top to bottom. Page control area that contains Tab
listing tasks to perform in sequential order from top to bottom. Modeling mode is
useful to generate the model geometry, property,support conditions, specify loads
etc.
The Post processing mode allows to perform post analysis result verification, query,
report generation etc.
