Surface wrap nodes in the Simulation Navigator

The main panel of the Simulation Navigator includes several nodes that you use only when you create surface wrap bodies. See Simulation Navigator overview for information about other areas of the Simulation Navigator.

Node	Description
Surface Wrap_4 Surface Wrap_5	Surface Wrap_4	Surface Wrap_5	A surface wrap body node represents the surface wrap geometry that the software generates using a surface wrapping algorithm.
Surface Wrap_4
Surface Wrap_5
Surface Wrap Recipes	Surface Wrap Recipes	The Surface Wrap Recipes node contains all nodes necessary to create and edit surface wrap geometry.

To create its surface wrap body, right-click the created surface wrap recipe node and choose Wrap. To update its surface wrap body, right-click the modified surface wrap recipe node and choose Update.In both cases, the surface wrap recipe status displays Update Pending.
