Missing edit button for plies after freesize optimization

Hi,

I have a problem with editing my plies after the free size optimization for composite materials. I am following the composite optimization with OptiStruct 11.0 on the example of a Formula-Student_Monocoque. On page 26 the tutorial shows a way how to edit the ply-shapes for later manufacturability. I have a student version of HyperWorks and I can not see an edit button. 

Is there any other way how to edit the plies ?

Thanks you

Kay

    in newer version you need to go to the 'Composites Browser'

    View>>Browsers>>Composite

     

    And then edit the SETs/Shapes

    Hi Adriano, 

     

    thank for the response.

    Now I can delete the Elements with RM-clicks. 

    But I can not add elements with a LM-click. 

    Do you have any idea or is there an other way how I can add elements to my shapes?

     

    Thanks for helping.
