The Local Display Controls affect the visual style of individual entities (such as
shaded or wireframe).
These controls are located within the tree list, and each
affects the specific entity that it appears beside.
Entity Display Icons
Entities are displayed or
hidden by toggling the corresponding icons (located next to each line item in the tree view).
The following rule applies:
A bold icon next to an entity (components/parts, systems, etc.) represents that the
entity is currently displayed.
A dimmed icon next to an unchecked entity represents that the entity is turned off from
display.
For section cuts - the graphical manipulator is linked to the entity display. Therefore
if a section cut or streamline rake is not displayed; the display of the graphical
manipulator is also turned off.
Colors
Certain entities can be colored
individually. The
Results Browser allows you to set each entity’s color without using
the Entity Attributes panel. The currently assigned color displays in the column.
To change an entity's color: click the current color box in the Results Browser, select a theme from the drop-down menu (Default, Median, or
Rainbow), and pick a color from the palette. Figure 1. Color Picker
Tip:
You can also change an entity's color from the
Entity Editor.
Click in the color palette to assign and save custom colors.
Display Mode
Components (parts), Sets,
and Streamlines have several display states. You can select these display modes by
left-clicking the small icons in the column for each component, set, or
streamline.
Left-clicking opens a pop-up
menu from which you can choose the new style.
Depending on which option you select,
the entity displays differently:
