Using Menus with "Display List" Selection

Several of the functions in the main menu require you to input <lists> of entities to be processed using the display list menu style.

(a) Select an entity type

This figure shows the standard entity type entry panel. All possible entity types are always mapped, with those that are unavailable greyed out.

In some contexts some or all of the MATERIAL , GLOBAL , SURFACE , SURFACE A & B options shown here may not be present since they are not appropriate.

(b) Define a <list> of these entities

After you have chosen an entity type you must define a <list> of entities to be processed

This figure shows a typical panel displayed after a command. You can select a immediately by clicking on or dragging across visible entities. Other options are:

Key in

To type in a range;

ALL To select all entities;
ALL_VISIBLE All currently visible entities;
SCREEN POLYGON Pick points defining a polygon within which entities will be defined

Or select entities on material(s) using the menu (here headed NODES ON ).
