The SoftSoil Tire Graphics tab appears when a SoftSoil Tire
and corresponding SoftSoil Road property files are chosen. It provides the options to create
an animated SoftSoil graphics in HyperView. A check box is
provided to activate the graphics. A graphics system collector is available to choose the soil
graphics system, this soil system is created when generating the road using the road tools
(see Visualization - Road Tools). This will be used to create a
moving carpet type of graphics to show the SoftSoil deformation as the vehicle moves over it.

When there are multiple AutoTires in a model, it is recommended to:
Use a single Graphic System in all of them.
Select/Clear the Animated Graphics option in all of them.
All the graphics that are created use the MotionSolve Grasub internally for animation in HyperView.
