There are several ways to display the mesh: the outline, the grid lines within the
mesh (wireframe), and a shaded (filled-in) view of the mesh. A shaded view is the
default. To change to a wireframe view, you can click the left mouse button in the
Graphics Display window and type
w. To return to a shaded view, type
s.
You can also specify a shaded or wireframe view (as well as an outline view) using the Mesh tab. The procedure is as follows:
Open the Mesh tab at the bottom of the Ansys Polydata window (Figure 7.12: The Mesh Tab).
Follow the instructions for the type of display you want:
To display the grid outline, disable all items from the Existing domains list and enable the Skeleton item. See Selecting Portions of the Mesh for Display for details.
To display the wireframe grid lines within the mesh (or the portions of the mesh selected for display), select Grid from the Display option group box at the bottom of the tab.
To display a filled-in view of the mesh (or the portions of the mesh selected for display), select Shaded from the Display option group box at the bottom of the panel.
If Auto-update is disabled, click to update the Graphics Display window.
