post processing in CFX11.0

Dear friends,

I am performing the steady state simulations for the centrifugal fan. Those are over. Now I want to post process the results. Is there any possibility to plot path lines. Or I have to switch over other post processing software. If any one has suggestion please tell me.
Thanks.

For a steady state run streamlines and path lines are the same thing (unless you are referring to particle tracks, which are different). Whatever you want to look at this needs to be done in CFD-Post.
