Press one of the selection tool buttons in order to select objects including curves, primitive surfaces, nodes, elements, or meshes. Selected objects are always highlighted in blue color. Selected objects are usually applied for next processing. Accordingly, some of the processings are activated depending on the state of the selected objects. They are summarized in the following table. Selected object |
