Filtering the Simulation Study Tree

You can use the Filter fm_filter.png at the top of the Simulation study tree to filter items displayed in the tree.

For example, you can filter by:
  • Text-based entries in the Simulation study tree such as part names, materials, and values
  • Connector types such as rigid, pin, and bolt
  • Fixture types such as immovable, on flat face, and symmetric
  • Result plots such as stress, displacement, and temperature

You can also filter the graphics view to show only the filtered results. Click the down arrow in the filter field and select Filter Graphics View.

To filter the Simulation study tree:

  1. At the top of the Simulation study tree, in the filter field, type a keyword to display the items you want to view.
  2. To redisplay all features, click fm_filtered.png in the filter field.
  • To find occurrences of more than one word (AND), separate the search words with a space. For example, Solids Steel finds both words in the study tree, that is, all solids associated with the material steel.
  • To find occurrences containing either word (OR), separate the search words with |. For example, Pin|Bolt finds any feature that has pin or bolt in its name.
  • You can access the last 10 searches by clicking the down arrow and selecting Recent Searches.
  • The last 10 searches are available across studies.
