SMS:Generic 2D Nodal BC, Nodestring and Element Display Options

From XMS Wiki - http://wikis.aquaveo.com/xms/

The properties of all Gen2DM (Generic 2D Mesh) node boundary conditions, nodestrings, and elements that SMS displays on the screen can be controlled here. This window is accessible only if the current 2D Mesh model is Generic (Mesh module’s Data | Switch Current Model… menu command). Open Display Options, turn on either Nodal BC, Nodestrings, or Elements and then select the corresponding Options button.

Display options are available for all boundary condition entities defined in the Gen2DM model definition. If no BC entities have been defined then a message will state that fact and display options will not be shown. Each defined BC entity has a checkbox to toggle the display of the item and an Attribute Options button to adjust style and color.

Below the list of BC entities is the display options for Inactive entities. Inactive entities are BC entities that are associated with an inactive parameter group (activation is controlled via the Gen2DM | Global Parameters menu item).

The BC entities can be displayed with labels beside them. Labels allows the user to adjust the label font, style, size, color and whether they are displayed. When Labels is checked for display, the auxiliary Show BC Values in labels is available. If checked, BC entities’ values will be displayed following the entities’ description.

All on checks all BC entity display options.

All off unchecks all BC entity display options.
