How to find an element by ID?

After 3D meshing a complex shape (dental implant) and performing a optistruc simulation, an error message appears telling there is a problem with an element:

Element # 364366, element type TETRA.

I don't know how I can find this element in HyperMesh so I cen check it and try to remesh the zone.

You can change the selection criteria here

I would take some time and look over some of the getting started videos found on our Youtube Channel

For some reason this isn't working for me. I can't see the selected element with any of the visualization options.

Is there a message that an element has been selected?

If you isolate it, can you fit to screen to see it?

Are you able to share an example model?
