In the settings for the 2D geometry objects under a Plane Geometry nodes, the Selections of Resulting Entities section is only applicable in the geometry sequence, and the Show in physics list is therefore not available.

Select the View work plane geometry in 3D check box to create the work plane geometry on the work plane in a 3D view (see Drawing on a 2D Work Plane in 3D). The default setting is to display the work plane in the Graphics window as a separate 2D geometry.
Under In-plane visualization of 3D geometry, specify how to visualize 3D objects in the work plane (as blue curves and points) by selecting one or more of the following check boxes (all of them are selected by default):
|
•
|
Coincident entities (blue) — Show edges and points (in a pure blue color) that lie in the work plane.
|
|
•
|
Intersection (cyan) — Show the intersection of 3D geometry and the work plane (in cyan).
|
|
•
|
Projection (light blue) — Show the projection of all edges and points onto the work plane (in light blue).
