Different type styles are used to indicate graphical user interface menu items, button and other GUI control labels, and text inputs that you enter (for example, in the Create a New Curve dialog box, enter sample-curve for Name).

A menu selection is indicated like this:

  Material Data

indicates that the Material Data menu item should be selected from the Polymat menu.

A mini flow chart is used to indicate selections from the menu bar. For example,

File → Exit

indicates that the Exit item should be selected from the File pull-down menu in the Ansys Polymat menu bar.

The word before an arrow invoke the pull-down menu (or submenu) and the final word indicates the item you should select from that pull-down menu.
