Viewing 2D Mesh Element Properties

The elements of a 2D mesh cannot be manually edited, however, coordinate, area and roughness properties can be viewed for each element.

To view the properties of a 2D mesh element:

1. Select the information tool from the GeoPlan Tools toolbar.
2. Click on a 2D Mesh element.

The 2D Zone Mesh Element Properties dialog will be displayed. An element may be made up of several aggregated triangles, in which case the coordinates of each of the triangles making up the element will be displayed. If simulation results are loaded, a grid of element results will also be shown.

The 2D Zone Mesh Element Properties dialog for an element can also be displayed via the 2D zone property sheet:

1. Click on the Mesh data field. The Select Element dialog will be displayed.
2. Enter the element ID and click OK.
