Hi,

 

When I add 'element' for surface contact in entities editor, I cannot rotate/pan or show/hide components to easily select.

Could you have any better method to do this?

 

Many thanks

    Hi @alpha

     

    Are you using dynamic rotate with your mouse or are you using from GUI?

    Thanks Prakash,

     

    After reset (Delete some files in working folder) HM, I can rotate model normally.

    But I still cannot show/hide comps when stay in 'add solid faces'.

     

    However, I already created a script to do this very quickly (4 clicks to create contact group+select master/slaver+contact type). Default HM may requires 20 mouse clicks.

    Thank you for the update.

     

    If the script is sharable, I request you to share which can be useful for other users :)/emoticons/default_smile.png' srcset='/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x' title=':)' width='20'>
