Entities Tab
To select entity types to display in the Model View, activate the checkboxes next to
each desired entity type. A check mark indicates that the entity type will display
in the browser. You can also use the select all, select
none, and select reverse buttons in this mode.

To control various behaviors within the Model Browser, use the
following Global and Local options.
Global Options
Autofit
Automatically fits the selected entities to the graphics
area whether using the context menu or the Selector,
Show/Hide, or Isolate functionality to control the
display.
Autoscroll on selection
Automatically opens the folder in the Model Browser, highlights the selected entity
in the browser list, and then
adjusts the browser list so that the
highlighted entity is shown automatically. This
functionality is only available when you select an entity
using the Selector functionality in the graphics area. If
the Autoscroll on selection option is not active, then
HyperMesh will continue to open the
folders automatically and highlight the entity in the
browser list, however, the
browser list will not adjust to show the selected
entity.
Stripe background
Causes the browser tree to display a
gray grid lines in the background, making it easier to
distinguish individual lines within the browser. When turned off, the browser
background is flat white.
Local Options
Autocolor visualization mode
Change the graphics display based on the browser view mode
you have selected. If Model or
Component View is selected, then
the visualization mode will change to "By Comp". If
Material View is selected, then
the visualization mode will change to "By Mat". If
Property View is selected, then
the visualization mode will change to "By Prop". If the
Autocolor visualization mode is
not active, then the visualization modes will not change
automatically when you are in a certain browser view, instead, you will have to
manually change the visualization mode from the
Visualization toolbar.
Delete association
Open the Delete component(s) and unique
associations dialog when Delete
Advanced is selected from the context menu.
When this box is checked off, the Delete component(s) and
unique associations dialog does not open when Delete
Advanced is selected from the context menu, and the entities uniquely
related to the selected component are automatically deleted.
Only available for components in the LS-DYNA user profile.
Hide attached
Mask the attached elements from the graphics area when you
perform the Hide functionality on the following entities:
loads, load collectors, load steps, groups and contact
surfaces. This could be observed if the elements are
currently displayed. This will not alter the display state
to off, that is local display icon will not be Dimmed.
Show/hide/isolate Include files with Xref
Show, hide, isolate the contents of the Include files when
you Show/Hide/Isolate the Include file. If you turn this
option off, Show/Hide/Isolate will only affect the
components and other HM entities that have graphics
(vectors, systems, plies, laminates, loads) in the Include
file of the Model, Solver, and ID Manger browsers.
Show/Isolate/IsolateOnly attached
Bring the attached elements to the graphics area when you
perform the Show/Isolate/Isolate Only functionality on the
following entities: loads, load collectors, load steps,
groups and contact surfaces. This could be observed if the
elements are currently masked or the elements belonging to
the component's display state is off. This will also turn
the local display icon to Bold if the component is currently
with the display state off.
