I'd like to know the effect of no-length-spring-erements like the nastran-cbush elements. So,I want to visualize only spring elements to sphere. but Visualization option menu did not have spring type in the mark list. I do'nt want to select 'all 1d elements'. if all menu do not have option I think, then I will write tcl-macro. please send me the example code.

    Thanks for your response. I hope the spring type will be added to the selection menu in the future versions.

    For this purpose I first tick all elements to be spheric, 

    and then turn off others one by one.

    Thank you for your advice. Already I had been using this way. Target model were using many rigid elements connected spring element. But rigid-type also could not be selected in this menu. So Spring and Rigid element were visualized to sphere too. I know that plot elements should be prepared and displayed instead of rigid elements. I don't want to spend so much time.
