To create surfaces by interpolating linearly between nodes
To create surfaces by interpolating linearly between nodes

1.	Select the Surfaces panel, ruled subpanel.

2.	Set the first collector to node list and select the first nodes in the proper order.

3.	Set the second collector to node list and select the second nodes in the proper order.

Alternately, all of the nodes can be selected using only one collector. In this case, the number of nodes must be equal on both sides. Altair HyperMesh divides the node list into two before creating the surface.

4.	Optionally, check on or off the auto reverse checkbox.

5.	Click create.

6.	To undo, immediately click reject.
