Mesh Properties Explorer dialog box

Note:

This command is available only when the Simulation Navigator view is set to Mesh View.

Faces
Select Meshed Faces	Lets you select a polygon face for which to specify the properties of the 2D mesh that is defined on that face. Note: In some cases, depending on your solver environment, you may not be able to select polygon faces for this command.
Associated Loads and Constraints Available when the Simulation file is the work part.
Name of the load or constraint that is defined on the selected mesh.	Lists the loads and constraints that are defined on the selected face.When the Simulation file is the work part, you can use the Explore Mesh Properties command to view the boundary conditions (loads, constraints, and simulation objects) that are associated with a face. To do this, select a face and choose Explore Mesh Properties . The Mesh Properties Explorer dialog box lists the loads and constraints that are defined on this face. You can click next to the appropriate boundary condition to edit that boundary condition as desired.
Element Properties tab
	Lets you define element properties such as material orientation, the thickness source for the elements, and shell offset. This tab corresponds to the Mesh Associated Data command. For more information, see Element and mesh attributes.
Collector Properties tab
	Lets you change the type of mesh collector in which this mesh is stored. This tab corresponds to the Mesh Collector properties command. For more information, see Mesh collectors.
Physical Properties tab
	Lets you define physical properties such as default thickness, nonstructural mass, and material properties. This tab corresponds to the Physical Property Table command. For more information, see Defining physical properties.
