Cannot plot user element in FEAP8.5

[ws18]

Dear all,

I just upgraded my FEAP from 8.3 to 8.5 recently. I can use my user element in FEAP8.5 and get the same results comparing with the FEAP8.3. However, I cannot plot my User elements and the corresponding results. The values shown in the plot window are incorrect. The attached pictures are the plot results of FEAP8.5 and FEAP8.3(correct) respectively. I checked the built-in element, FEAP8.5 can plot the correct result.

My mac system is OS X 10.11.6. And the compiler is GNU Fortran (GCC) 5.3.0. When I installed FEAP8.5, I revised the makefile.in & makefile and didn't include the jpeg screen dump option:
  LDOPTIONS = -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lblas -llapack -lm
I don't know whether this matters or not.

Thank you!

Did you already follow section 6.4 in the version 8.5 Programmer's Manual?  In particular the setting of pstyp under isw.eq.1 and also the the setting of the plot ordering?

Thank you very much for your prompt reply. Your suggestion is very helpful. I should include the command "pstyp = ndm" in my user element.
