Local resolution, contact prevention, and auto refinement nodes commands

Surface Wrap Recipes
Constraints Container
Local Resolution 1
Contact Prevention 1
Auto Refinement 1
Surface_Wrap_Recipe1
Constraints
Local Resolution 1
Contact Prevention 1
Auto Refinement 1

Icon	Command name	Description
	Show Only	Appears only for the nodes that are under the Constraints Container node.Shows only the polygon entities to which the contact prevention, local resolution, or auto refinement constraint is applied and hides all other entities.
	Show	Appears only for the nodes that are under the Constraints Container node.Shows the polygon entities to which the contact prevention, local resolution, or auto refinement constraint is applied if the polygon entity is hidden.
	Hide	Appears only for the nodes that are under the Constraints Container node.Hides the polygon entities to which the contact prevention, local resolution, or auto refinement constraint is applied if the polygon entity is displayed.
	Edit	Opens the corresponding constraint dialog box to let you modify the constraint settings.
	Copy	Appears only for the nodes that are under the Constraints Container node.Creates a copy of the selected constraint.
	Rename	Lets you change the name of the constraint.
	Delete	Appears only for the nodes that are under the Constraints Container node.Deletes the selected contact prevention, local resolution, or auto refinement constraint from the model.
	Remove	Appears only for the nodes that are under the Constraints node.Removes the selected contact prevention, local resolution, or auto refinement constraint from the parent surface wrap recipe.
	Information	Opens an Information window that displays information on the selected constraint.

Note:

The following commands are not applicable to local resolution constraints that are applied to bounding boxes or bounding spheres, because bounding boxes and bounding spheres are not polygon entities:

• Show Only

• Show

• Hide

	Update	Available only for surface wrap recipes that are out of sync with the surface wrap geometry.Recreates the surface wrap geometry for the selected surface wrap recipe.
	Wrap	Appears only for surface wrap recipes for which the surface wrap geometry does not yet exist.Creates the surface wrap geometry for the selected surface wrap recipe.
	Edit	Opens the Surface Wrap Recipe dialog box to let you modify the surface wrap recipe settings.
	Rename	Lets you change the name of the surface wrap recipe.
	Delete	Deletes the selected surface wrap recipe from the model.
