For 1D, 1D axisymmetric, 2D, and 2D axisymmetric components, the View node (

) controls the settings to display or hide geometry labels and lock the axis. An
Axis node is added by default.
Also right-click the View node to add
Hide for Geometry nodes. To add additional
View nodes, in the
Model Builder, right-click
Definitions and select
View. You can also right-click a
View node to copy or duplicate it. Right-click the
Definitions or
Views container node above the
View nodes to paste a copied
View node.
Select the Show geometry labels check box to display the geometry object labels and the geometric entity labels (numbering) in the
Graphics window. The labels appear for geometry objects or geometric entities (domain, boundary, edge, or point numbers), depending on what part of the model tree you display and the selection mode you are using.
Select the Show edge direction arrows check box to display the direction arrows on boundaries (edges) in the
Graphics window. The direction arrows indicate the directions in which the boundary parameterization’s value increases.
Select the Lock axis check box to store the current axis limits so that, for example, the zoom tools can be temporarily used. By revisiting the
View node you can then restore the axis limits to the values in the view at the time the
Lock axis check box is selected.
