    Hello,

     

    the material types and card images are solver specific and they are only shown in HyperMesh, if you set a correct User Profile. The User Profile you need for MAT1 is 'OptiStruct', so please make sure that you choose the correct Profile when starting the software. When you forget to choose on start-up and want to switch the User Profile to OptiStruct later, please go to Preferences --> User Profiles --> OptiStruct.

     Best Regards
    Jan
