Note:

All three columns (X-Force, Y-Force and Total Force) are sortable columns.

By clicking on the header row, the user can sort the results (Nodes numbering and the corresponding support forces) based on one of the columns. This is useful to find, for example, the max. or min. X-, Y- or Total Force.

After sorting, to get back the original numbering of the Nodes, simply click the "Reset" button.
