    Hello Andreas,

     

    You can find Elements/Nodes/Edge/Face/Body/Vertex by their ID, with the help of the "Search by ID" tool.

    You can right click on the Model Name and click on Select by ID, which opens up a window where you can choose the type of entity you want to search and also enter the ID of the same.

     

    Attaching some snapshots.

     

    Hope this helps.

     

    Regards
