Body Tree

Various information for each body in the model is indicated on body tree.

The information includes body attribute, material property, boundary condition, mesh size and operational history.

[Create new group] button allows you to create a new group folder.
The grouping of the bodies can be done by putting them in the folder by drag and drop.
A sub group folder can be made in the group folder.
The grouping does not affect the results.
The type of bodies to show can be specified
at Filter of the tree.
Filtered items are listed at the top of the tree.
