How can I check plastic deformation angle of the member?

It's a matter of my lack of knowledge... I don't know how to check the plastic deformation angle through the analysis results.
I used rectangular fiber section. I thought about looking at theta of section deformation, but the value seems to be too small compared to the generated displacement, so I'm worried about what to check the angle.

You can try and use the custom record in the recorder called plasticDeformation
We have never used it in an application, we tried to test it but the results are a bit weird.
You can have a try and see if you can interpret them straightforwardly.

Let us know how it goes.
